The Kitchener Market is Bringing Back In-person Events - Enter to win tickets




We'll start with the Disclaimer - Yes, we do provide media coverage for the Kitchener Market, but this just means we're able to offer you a chance to win too! Enter the contest at the end of this post

As many of our readers know, the Kitchener Market was our happy place.  Not only is it a hub for wonderful local food, but it also hosted many events including Food Festivals, Cooking Classes, our Movember KW Kids and Food Revolution KW days.

Since Covid-19 changed everything, the Kitchener Market has been offering their Saturday Farmers' Market, Online Health and Wellness events as well as Virtual Cooking Classes. Now they have announced some live events that will take place at the Kitchener Market Eby St. covered area.

The Kitchener Market Brings Music and Theatre to Downtown Kitchener

The Eby St. side of the Kitchener Market is often thought of as the outdoor area where you go to get your fruits and vegetables, but this month that is about to change. It will be transformed into an outdoor covered patio offering live music on Thursdays beginning on August 12, 2021

Event Details:

Live music like never before at the Kitchener Market! Our Eby Street covered parking and vendor area is transformed into Downtown Kitchener's newest performance venue to partner with The Registry Theatre for 'Music at the Market'. Join us Thursday evenings for a multi-performance showcase of some of Waterloo Region's biggest musical talents. You can purchase tickets (minimum purchase of 2 tickets per order) to reserve a table and with friends and family and enjoy drink options from TWB Brewing and food prepared by Chef Rob.

'Music at the market' is sponsored by the Downtown Kitchener BIA and Canadian Heritage.
