For the 13th year in a row, the 124 Grand Market will be bringing some extra bustle to the heart of Wîhkwêntôwin this Sunday.
The market includes over 80 rotating vendors offering a variety of goods including fresh local produce, handmade artisan wares and street food.
102 Avenue off of 124 Street will be closed for the market which will be open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Live entertainment can be enjoyed in front of the Robertson Wesley United Church, courtesy of the 124 Grand Market Busker Series.
Families can also take part in the Little Beans program which introduces kids ages 4-12 to fresh, local foods and educates them about where food comes from. The program has been part of the market since 2015 and aims to encourage healthy nutrition and conscientious consumer habits.
The market's counterpart on 108 Avenue has been open since May 15. Both markets will be open until Thanksgiving weekend.
The 124 Grand Market will also hold night markets in different neighbourhoods across the city. You can visit their website to see when and where the next one is.
