We are thankful to all the fantastic vendors, the loyal market-goers and visitors from all over the world for visiting our farmers market this summer! It was a successful season and we can’t thank you enough for your support!
As the snow line moves closer down to Revelstoke we are getting ready to start the Winter Market season 24/25! We are starting out with three Thursdays and then move to Saturdays (except from one market on Thursday in march) and the hours are adjusted to give you enough time to come to the market after a day of playing in the snow - new market hours are noon to 4pm. As always we are honoured to be hosting a fantastic range of vendors, from fresh produce to meat, eggs, honey, cider, wine, coffee, baked treats and art items from our talented local artists.
every second week 12-4pm at the Revelstoke community & aquatic centre
bring cash, a bag and invite a friend to tag along
if you want to avoid crowds visit mid-afternoon
