A Sunday Market
For Tega Cay, By Tega Cay
We Didn’t Build It
to Sell More Plates
Update, November 9. The 2026 season ran six Sundays, September 20 through October 25. Thank you to every exhibitor and every neighbor who came out. Keep an eye out for pop-up markets over the winter. The full market reopens in the spring.
We didn’t build Maisie’s Sunday Market to sell more plates. We built it because Tega Cay has this deep bench of people running real businesses — out of a garage, a spare room, a folding table at every fair and fundraiser within thirty miles — and most of them don’t have a place to stand in front of the whole town at once.
Starting September 20, they will.
Six Sundays,
One to Five
Every Sunday from September 20 through October 25, from 1:00 to 5:00 PM, we’re turning part of the property over to Tega Cay’s own small businesses, artisans, farmers, clubs, and nonprofits. No booth fee. No ticket at the gate. Twelve to twenty exhibitors a week, a different mix each time, so no single Sunday looks like the last one.
- The dates
- Six Sundays — September 20 and 27, then October 4, 11, 18, and 25. Same hours every week, 1:00 to 5:00 PM.
- Where
- On the property at 2150 Gold Hill Road, Tega Cay. Parking is on site.
- What it costs
- Nothing, in either direction. Free to set up, free to walk in.
- The kitchen
- We’re open 10am–8pm on Sundays, brunch straight through supper, so the market sits in the middle of a day you can already spend here.
There’s a second reason to come at one o’clock: Maisie keeps her own office hours in the fenced dog yard from 1 to 2 every Sunday through October, so her hour and the market’s first hour are the same hour, every week of the market. Bring your dog or borrow ours.
Not a Flea Market.
Not a Food Festival.
This isn’t a flea market, and it isn’t a food festival competing with our own kitchen. It’s a lineup we put together on purpose, vetted for Tega Cay roots and a business license that actually holds up. Nobody sells ready-to-eat food or drink for eating on site — that one category stays with the kitchen — but packaged, take-home goods are welcome, and anything that needs a health permit needs the permit on file before we confirm a date.
The businesses that have raised a hand so far include jewelry makers, bakers, realtors, wellness coaches, a DJ, a plumber, a fine artist, a fitness studio, and a travel agent. What they have in common is that they’re building something here, the same way we are. The ones confirmed so far are listed on the Sunday Market page.
Tega Cay Doesn’t Have
a Town Square
“Where the Good Life Gathers” isn’t just a line on our website. A restaurant can be a gathering place or it can just be a restaurant, and we wanted to be the first thing. That’s the same reason we hand the closed days over for private gatherings and the same reason there’s a stage in the backyard.
Tega Cay doesn’t have a town square. So for six Sundays this fall, we’re going to try being one.
How to Get
a Table
If you run a small business or nonprofit that lives or operates in Tega Cay, we want to hear from you. The application is short, and it’s the way in — we confirm your specific Sunday back to you once that week’s mix is balanced.
- Apply
- Fill out the exhibitor application. There’s no cutoff — apply any time before the Sunday you want, though the earlier you apply, the more likely you are to get the dates you asked for. We review applications as they come in and come back to you with your date or dates.
- Send your logo
- Email your logo and a link to your website or main social page to maisie@mgb-llc.co. Every confirmed exhibitor gets listed on the Sunday Market page and written up here in the Journal across the six-week run. The sooner we have it, the sooner you’re in front of people.
- Licenses and permits
- Send your business license number on the application, and email a copy of any health permit or special license alongside your logo.
- Setup and teardown
- Load in no earlier than 11:00 AM and be ready by 12:45 for the 1:00 open. Teardown complete by 5:30. Full logistics go out closer to your date.
- The one thing we ask
- Post about your Sunday on your own channels at least once, before and during, and tag us where you can. That’s the whole trade.
If your business is based outside Tega Cay, don’t write us off yet. We’re already planning a Spring Local Market with a wider radius, and we work with businesses from all over year-round through our charity event sponsorships. If we can’t fit everyone in this fall, we’ll either stretch the season as the weather allows or pick it back up in the spring.
