Summer by the Sea Street Market is back on Craig Street from June 13th 2023 3 edited 

...be prepared to love this market        

 

Market Starts June 13th until August 29th        

Brought to you by the Parksville & District Chamber of Commerce, this street market is a true reflection of our community's vibrant character and we wanted to grow the market back to where it used to be before the Pandemic. 

Now in its 20th year, this year's market will run on Tuesdays from 6 pm to 9 pm with over 130 vendors each night, set up on Craig Street, Parksville, opposite the Community Park. The market is popular with locals and visitors looking for a unique experience. An eclectic mix of local merchants, artisans, craftspeople, farmers, entertainers and of course food vendors. There really is something for everyone. 

Summer by the Sea Street Market is an economic benefit to the community. It helps to increase the number of visitors to Parksville and is a great weekday event for those visiting the area. Come down and enjoy the market while supporting local businesses, artisans and food producers.

Applications now open for all vendors and food trucks. Apply HERE.
