Gate B-side stop for last‑minute San Jose swag
Just past security in Terminal B, San José Marketplace leans hard into Bay Area and Silicon Valley souvenirs. You’ll see it along the main concourse walking toward the B gates, with shelves of logo mugs, keychains, and T-shirts that actually say “San Jose,” not just generic “California.” Prices run airport-standard: expect around $10–$15 for mugs and $20–$35 for shirts.
This shop focuses on grab-and-go souvenirs rather than full-on duty free. You’ll find magnets, shot glasses, stickers, and tote bags, plus a few tech-flavored trinkets that nod to local giants like the 101 and 280 corridor. Inventory tilts more touristy than design-store chic, but it’s one of the few spots in Terminal B where you can buy something specifically tied to San Jose before your 6:00–9:00 a.m. departures.
Hours track the main bank of flights in Terminal B; most days they open early morning and run into the evening push around the 18:00–21:00 departures. Stock turns over faster near holidays and during big events at the SAP Center, so last-minute shoppers on Sunday nights may find sizes picked over, especially in medium and large T-shirts priced under $30.
Practical tip: if you spot the design you want while walking to gate B18 or B19, buy it on the way out. Staff start straightening shelves 20–30 minutes before closing, and they’ll lock the doors before the final late-night flight pushes if traffic dies off.
