More than 30 female artists and artisans will sell their work on the Lido Deck at Lido Marina Village on Saturday, July 18, when the Female Maker Market returns for its summer edition.
The open-air market runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. overlooking Newport Harbor, with live music from Lauren Black, according to the Lido Marina Village events page. Admission is free.
The Female Maker Market is an independent organization that partners with the village and accepts vendor applications through its website, thefemalemakermarket.com. The market has appeared on the Lido Deck multiple times in 2026, including a Mother's Day Edition on Saturday, May 9, that also drew 30-plus vendors. An October edition is already planned, per the market's social media.
Summer Hours at the Village
Lido Marina Village shops are open until 7 p.m. through the summer, according to the village's website. The complex at 3420 Via Oporto also runs a Wednesday evening "Wind Down with Live Music" series from 5 to 7 p.m. and a Fourth Fridays Vintage Market on the Lido Deck featuring housewares, clothing, jewelry, and bags. The June 26 vintage market featured musician Zach Churchill.
Waterfront restaurant Skål has posted new summer hours: Monday through Wednesday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Thursday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., according to the village's event listing. The restaurant offers a weekday Happy Hour from 2 to 5 p.m. with half-off bottles of wine and beer pitchers.
A Recurring Draw
The Female Maker Market's repeat appearances at Lido Marina Village reflect a pattern of recurring programming at the harborfront complex. In addition to the maker market and vintage market, the village hosted a Patriotic Brass Quartet on July 2 and July 3 and continues its weekly live music series on Wednesdays.
No individual spokesperson for Lido Marina Village or the Female Maker Market was available for comment.
