Goblin Market
Saturday, August 29, 2026
Welcome to Gob-Academy
Class is officially in session. Join us on Saturday, August 29, from 1–7 PM at Oviedo Mall for a back-to-school themed edition of Goblin Market, where creativity, community, and over 150 local artists and makers come together for an unforgettable day.
This year's theme, Gob-Academy, transforms the market into a school campus where attendees can browse unique artwork, handcrafted goods, vintage finds, apparel, collectibles, and more while celebrating the start of a new season. Come dressed in your favorite cosplay, meet new friends, and decide for yourself whether the Preps or the Goths deserve to rule the halls.
Featured Artist
This month's featured sponsor, @minestumakes, brings a unique blend of mounted insect art and handcrafted accessories inspired by the natural world. Be sure to stop by and discover one of Central Florida's most distinctive artists.
Gob Live: Idol Fest
The Food Court stage becomes home to the first annual Gobs Live, an all-day celebration of idol culture featuring live performances, dance covers, original music, and interactive fan experiences. Whether you're performing or cheering from the crowd, there's something for everyone.
Activities and Community
There's plenty to experience throughout the day. Visit the Quest Board at the Information Booth, complete the Receipt Rally, participate in vendor Stamp Rallies, and explore community-hosted meetups based on shared interests. Guests interested in organizing a meetup can submit an application by August 19 to be featured on the event map.
Trading Post
Bring collectibles, books, art supplies, toys, clothing, and more to trade with fellow attendees, participating vendors, or the Goblin King's Hoard. Trading remains one of Goblin Market's most popular traditions and offers a fun way to discover new treasures without spending a dollar.
