With the support of the town, the Leamington Arts Centre, the Uptown Business Improvement Area and The Bank Theatre, the market will return for two Friday night dates.
The first market will be June 17 from 5 to 10 pm and the second will be Aug 19 from 5 pm-10 pm
Held along Mill Street West the market is a one-of-a-kind, family-friendly, free, outdoor street festival featuring street food, handcrafted items, craft beer and cocktails, local wine, musicians and artists.
Mill Street West will be closed, creating a pedestrian-only area in the heart of uptown Leamington. Local vendors will be showcased alongside Leamington businesses with local music provided by The Bank Theater and art exhibits on display inside the Leamington Arts Centre.
“We are looking forward to the return of the popular Mill St. Markets after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic,” said Mayor Hilda MacDonald. “This family-friendly event is a great way to support local small businesses and provides a safe and welcoming environment for our community to gather.”
