The Market Place

CVB Tip

Don't be surprised to see kids at Irvine malls, snapping pictures and checking off lists. Scavenger hunts are a popular activity here, and they make a great game for kids while you're shopping. Who can find a purple hat? Something with three wheels? An anteater?

Opened in 1988, The Market Place's 165 acres of shops, restaurants and entertainment plus its convenient location straddling Irvine and Tustin on either side of Jamboree Road have made it one of Orange County's most popular shopping destinations.

In fact, readers of the Orange County Register's 2010 Annual People's Choice Awards voted it the "#1 Best Neighborhood Shopping Center" in Orange County.

With more than 120 stores, restaurants and services, The Market Place offers pretty much everything you might want or need: clothing, books, gifts, specialty foods, electronics and much more. (The president of Irvine Company Retail Properties, which operates The Market Place, has been quoted as saying "If you can't find what you're looking for at The Market Place, there's a good chance it doesn't exist.")

If you're looking for shoppertainment, have a sudden vacation need (a new swimsuit or a light sweater for cool Irvine nights!) or are just looking for a great place to dine, catch a movie and stroll amid fountains in a sunny, beautiful open-air setting, the place to go is The Market Place.

Directions to The Market Place

The Market Place is located where Irvine and Tustin meet along Jamboree Road, just off of I-5. From central Irvine, take Highway 55 North to I-5 South or head northwest on Jamboree Road to El Camino Real.
