Pop-up Markets

The Pop-up Markets started out as flea markets run by the Mayor Sexton "Hardcastle" Cohen administration on Sundays in multiple time zones, where businesses congregated to sell goods from their car trunks. Under Mayor Andi Jones, the pop-up markets became temporary farmers markets courtesy of San Andreas State Construction. Mayor Maximillian Angel's first market stall event using the new tents was MitchCon 2023.

Paleto Flea Market (June 25, 2023)


Deputy Mayor Kiki Pendragon coordinated and hosted pop-up markets in both storms next to the former Andi Jones Farmers Market. Businesses sold products from their vehicle trunks. At the NA event, Mayor Sexton Cohen hung out; Mira Whana from MDM Records performed. Due to the noise complaint feedback, the Mayor's Office resolved to have quieter music next time.

Vespucci Flea Market (July 9, 2023)


The Mayor's Office held three pop-up market events (to accommodate different time zones) in Vespucci. For one of the time zones on July 9, 2023, Deputy Mayors Kiki Pendragon and Etta Hawthorne ran the Pop-up Market in Vespucci by the lifeguard tower, where several vendors sold wares out of their car trunks. Free Money Shot combos were provided from a green G-Wagon. Benson's Backalley Motors put on a car show, and Max won their grand prize. A number of vehicles blew up.

Three-Day Farmers Market in Mirror Park (September 21-24, 2023)


On September 21, 2023 at the Mirror Park cul-de-sac, Mayor Andi Jones manually constructed and announced the first pop-up farmers market to make use of the San Andreas State Construction company's newly available 3-day market tents.

MitchCon 2023 (October 20, 2023)


On October 20, 2023, Mayor Maximillian Angel organized and Deputy Mayor Party Hardy hosted MitchCon 2023 inside of the Cerberus Arena in the Musical Festival DARKER layout, featuring market stalls for businesses, live music performances on the main stage, free commerative merchandise (MitchCon 2023 Pins and Mitch Hoodies), free Shrugway Sandwiches food, and "social influencers". Eve Summers constructed a hazardous empty ball pit to dive into, trays, and Andi's 3-day tents. Nancy Drew wrote the following waiver in fine print on the ball pit: "Cerberus Arena/Cerberus is not liable for any injuries stemming from the Ball Pit(TM)".



Lang Yass, LiL Cee$, Winter Sison, and Zarina Vega performed. Party Hardy, Deputy Mayor Cydney Lune, and Mayor Max judged a cosplay contest on the main stage catwalk. Lara Croft won the cosplay contest and the $100,000 grand prize, Diamond Dawn won second place for a $50,000 prize, and "Michael De Santa" won third place for a $15,000 prize. Reed Dankleaf cancelled on MitchCon's only scheduled panel.
