NEWS RELEASE
CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS
*************************
Niagara Falls' award-winning Farmers' Market will open at its new permanent home, The Niagara Falls Exchange (5943 Sylvia Place), on Saturday, May 18, from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., and will run every Saturday until Oct. 26.

The market temporarily relocated to the MacBain Community Centre in 2020 when The Exchange project broke ground. The City is excited to welcome the Market back to the Main and Ferry neighbourhood and offer an elevated experience in the new 3,000-sq.-ft. Market Hall, built on the site of the original Niagara Falls Farmers’ Market, which had operated on Sylvia Place since the 1970s.  

On May 18, market-goers can expect a variety of offerings at The Exchange, including local produce, flowers, homemade baked goods and food, artisan goods and art from various Niagara-based creators.

The first 100 market-goers will receive a limited edition Niagara Falls Exchange canvas tote bag. There will also be live music, face painting, art installations and fun family activities.

The Niagara Falls Exchange is the City’s new 10,000-sq.-ft. arts and culture hub and indoor/outdoor event space, located in the Main Street and Ferry Street neighbourhood adjacent to the Niagara Falls History Museum.

In addition to the Farmers’ Market, The Exchange also features a café, artist and woodworking studios, an event and performance space, and two courtyards featuring public art and murals.
