I couldn't justify the price for what was basically a trade show demonstration hall. I was only at the market an hour Saturday but really enjoyed it. By Sunday afternoon it was a zoo. I only went back because I wanted some more of those tomatoes. I’ve seen a lot of comments pretty much the same, nice idea but horrid execution.

That was a total ripoff. My wife and I went on Sunday night. We pretty much spent the whole night in lines. You didn't get much to eat (tho what you got was really tasty), and you definitely didn't have time to talk to the artisans (since you couldn't waste time not being in line). We missed four pavilions entirely, and two of those (coffee and gelato) we missed because they closed early. It was pretty much a 3.5-hour-long infomercial that we paid $120 to attend.
