Swap Meet This Weekend: Community, Commerce, and New Legal Protections

Dear Vendors, Shoppers, and Friends,

We’re excited to welcome everyone back to the LACC Swap Meet this weekend! As always, our vibrant community of local sellers, bargain hunters, and families makes this event one of the best places in Los Angeles to connect, shop, and support each other.

Important Update: New Legal Protections for Vendors and Attendees

We know there have been concerns about immigration enforcement in the area. We want to reassure you that, thanks to a recent court order, new protections are in place for everyone attending and working at the swap meet:

  • Federal immigration agents are now restricted from conducting raids or detentions based solely on appearance, ethnicity, occupation, or location.
  • Agents must have a clear, specific reason to approach or detain anyone—they can no longer act just because someone is at a swap meet or looks a certain way.
  • Anyone who is approached or detained by immigration agents now has the right to confidential legal counsel.

You can watch the ABC news coverage and learn more about this important ruling here: Watch ABC coverage of the court order.

This means our vendors and attendees should feel safer and more secure while enjoying the swap meet this weekend. We remain committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all.
