Now entering its 5th year, Downtown Evanston's Thursday Night Markets showcase artists, makers, and retailers from the local community. Each market will feature 30+ vendors, a DJ or live music, and other special activities. The 2024 market dates are June 6, July 11, August 1, and September 5, from 4:30-7:30PM at Fountain Square. It's free to stroll the market and enjoy the music, and we invited you to engage the vendors to learn more about their artwork and other items for sale.

Thanks to Byline Bank for sponsoring the 2024 Thursday Night Markets!
