When The District first opened in 2007, it was the largest shopping center to be built in Orange County during that decade. Original tenants for the million-square foot center included anchors such as Orange County’s largest Whole Foods Market, Costco, TJ Maxx/HomeGoods, PetSmart, AMC Tustin 14 and Target.

The outdoor center now features nearly 100 specialty stores and restaurants— including Union Market Tustin, one of Orange County’s first food halls with over 20 unique eateries and independent retailers.

This year, The District welcomes a wave of notable new retail and dining concepts, including Prego, Pressed Juicery, Planet Fitness, Bar Louie, The Halal Guys, UnionRyde, Joon Shabu Shabu, Bear Cheese Tart, Black Steel Barbershop and more.

With annual sales of more than $470 million and millions of visitors a year, The District continues to rank among Orange County’s top 10 shopping centers.

More events to be announced in the coming months.

The center can be easily accessed off Tustin Ranch Road at Park Avenue in Tustin.
