Shop Small Saturday in Long Beach
Small Business Saturday on November 30, 2024, wedged nicely between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, encourages people to check out local shops and the locals who own them. Long Beach is well known for terrific homegrown businesses located in the city’s popular shopping districts, and many of those will be offering special deals on Saturday. So check them out and find out the big deal about shopping small.
BELMONT SHORE
Arguably Long Beach’s best known shopping and dining district, Belmont Shore shops offer everything from jewelry to hardware to one-of-a-kind Christmas ornaments. Find Long Beach-inspired apparel, art and accessories at Long Beach Clothing Co. and LB Swag. For more information and a directory of shops, click here.
RETRO ROW
Retro Row is a fun, funky and continually evolving stretch of Fourth Street–between Temple and Walnut Avenues–that is home to uber-cool, vintage-inspired specialty shops and boutiques such as Meow (2210 E Fourth St) and Pigeon’s Roller Skate Shop (2132 E Fourth St). Here you can shop a curated inventory of vintage clothes, mid-century furnishings, vinyl records, and more.
BIXBY KNOLLS
The Bixby Knolls shopping district–much of it centered on Atlantic Avenue–has a very neighborly feel with lots of locally owned shops and boutiques like Pixie Toys (3914 Atlantic Ave) and Better Half Boutique (3803 Atlantic Ave), which offers everything from home furnishings to toys as well as another Long Beach Clothing Co. location. You can also take a break with lots of options for dining, desserts and craft beer.
DOWNTOWN
Pine Avenue is Downtown Long Beach’s main dining and retail artery and here you’ll find clothing, record stores, skate shops, and one-of-a-kind boutiques like LB Vintage Etc (737 Pine Ave). Just a couple blocks east is the East Village Arts District, an eclectic area featuring unique boutiques and galleries such as Dark Art Emporium (427 E First St) and the non-profit Loiter Galleries (425 The Promenade North), all of it located amongst some of the most historic and eye-catching architecture in the city.
SHORELINE VILLAGE
Located directly on the waterfront, Shoreline Village has stunning views of the Queen Mary and is home to some of the most unique, charming shops offering everything from socks to souvenirs, including The Village Hat Shop (429-A Shoreline Village Dr). For a list of shops, click here.
