What we’re about

MARKETS
This market leans into craft with intention. Handmade jewellery, delicious treats, and pieces you’re unlikely to find anywhere else. Each week features local makers and artists, with offerings shaped by that night’s theme, so there’s always something new waiting.

MUSIC
Each night features live performances shaped by a different cultural lens. Expect sounds of our collective culture creating a distinct atmospheres that never repeats itself. Come for the music, stay for the discovery.

EATING
Come ready to eat. The lineup brings together cultural flavours, local craft beers, and cool treats to beat the heat. Start with one thing, end up trying three. That’s usually how it goes.

FUN FOR ALL AGES
We’ve packed the day with something for everyone. The Family Zone, hosted by New Westminster Family Place, gives kids room to run, play, and burn off some energy, while you take a breather and enjoy everything else happening around you.
