Join us every FRIDAY for the Downtown Elgin Market starting on Friday, May 23rd!

We are back on S Riverside Drive Elgin IL 60120!

This year we are going to be celebrating ‘First Fridays’ with extended hours on May 23rd, June 6th, & August 1st. The Market will be open an extra hour (3:00 PM- 8:00 PM) on these days. Please note: The Market will be closed on July 4th.

Make sure you mark your calendars for food trucks, chef demos, our amazing vendor’s products, live entertainment, and educational and informative programming from our knowledgeable community partners!

Bring the kiddos down to the Market for our Kid’s Corner for special programming to keep them busy at the Market with Ceramica An Art Affair for pottery painting. If you and your family get too hot, head over to Festival Park for the Splash Pad.

We are so excited about this season, we can’t wait to see you!
