Vancouver’s local market room
The city is full of good work.
Come meet it.
Vancouver Market Events is where people find the independent businesses worth knowing, and makers find the audience that wants to know them.
VME MARKET NOTE / 01
A VME market brings independent vendors and curious people into the same room, then lets the conversations do the rest.
Why make a day of it
The good kind of
weekend plan.
A market day gives you a reason to get out, see what people are making around you, and leave with a story you did not have when you came in.
02 / Join the local loop
A place to spend time, not rush through.
Bring a friend, ask a question, and enjoy the feeling of finding your city in the people around you.
New market dates, vendor calls, and behind-the-scenes moments are shared on Instagram.

About
A market is one of the nicest ways a city gets to know itself.
We create a place for people to show up for local work, and for local work to meet the people who will care about it. It is simple, human, and worth building carefully.
People first
The best market day makes room for a real conversation.
Made to discover
A good mix keeps every corner worth exploring.
Local on purpose
