Uptown Marion Market &
Fall Marion market
Historically held in City Square Park, the Uptown and Fall Marion Markets offer fresh produce, baked goods, flowers, Iowa wines, and a wide variety of artisan items - all from local vendors. Grab a bite to eat in the Uptown and enjoy live entertainment from some of the areas finest musicians.
The 2021 Uptown Marion Market will look a little different this year. With the renovation to the Depot and several anticipated construction projects surrounding City Square Park, Uptown Marion Market will be relocating for the season. We are excited to remain in the Uptown and will be located at the corner of 8th Avenue and 12th Street.

The market will continue to navigate public health measures to ensure a safe and healthy event as directed by the state of Iowa. Our priority will remain on the safety of vendors, volunteers, sponsors, and attendees while offering the public access to local products.
