Welcome back to the Downtown Farmers’ Market! We’re doing things a little differently this year, so keep reading to discover what’s new.
NAVIGATING CONSTRUCTION
With 102 Avenue closed to traffic, all your Saturday morning routine needs is a new approach.
We recommend accessing the market from Jasper Avenue. There are plenty of parking options within a two-block radius of the market. Street parking through HotSpot is only a couple of bucks! Find real-time availability and rates for private lots with ZipStall, SpotHero, Parkopedia, Impark, or Vibe Parking.
You can check which sidewalks are open with this pedestrian wayfinding map.
Find more transportation tips (that go beyond driving!) here.
VENDORS AND ENTERTAINMENT
Explore the stalls of 35+ local vendors on 104 Street, then pop by Michael Phair Park next door, grab a seat and enjoy live entertainment.
Curious about which vendors and performers will be at the market? See the complete lineup here—we update it weekly!
WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS
We’re excited to announce that the Alberta Craft Council will be hosting hands-on craft workshops at the market every Saturday! Learn directly from Alberta artists and ACC staff in a relaxed, welcoming environment where you can experiment with new materials, work with professional tools and pick up new skills along the way. See which workshop is up next.
Bike Edmonton and Paths for People are offering a special bike valet on the last Saturday of every month. Park your bike with trusted volunteers for free secure storage. You can even get a free bike check and basic repairs!
We’ll also be hosting special guest events throughout the season, so make sure to check our Farmers’ Market page to find out what’s on.
DINING DEALS
The local shops and restaurants that call 104 Street home are excited to offer exclusive dining deals for market-goers on select Saturdays. Find out which deals are available here.
ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT
104 Street is an entertainment district, which means you can drink alcohol underneath the sun! Grab a drink from participating pubs and restaurants on the street and sip while you shop. Just make sure to stay within the boundaries of the Farmers’ Market.
DOGS WELCOME
The Downtown Farmers’ Market is one of the few farmers’ markets in Edmonton that is dog-friendly! Bring your best friend with you to explore pet-specific products and meet other pups. We supply several water bowls on site.
