Come Say Hello!
Meet The Merch Goblin in person at local markets around North Carolina. Browse new collections, see products up close, and discover treasures you won't want to leave behind!
I've loved getting to meet people who have been following along online — including folks who told me they came because they'd watched my booth journey on TikTok and Instagram! 🥹
Each market is a little different, and I often bring new stickers, jewelry, bundles, and other treasures along with me. Come browse, ask questions, show me what you're collecting, or just stop by and say hi. Whether you've been following The Merch Goblin for a while or you're discovering the goblin for the first time, I'd love to see you there.
Check the calendar below for upcoming markets, and come find your next treasure in person. ✨
