Market Weather

Safety is the number one priority if severe weather threatens Uptown Marion Market.

If it is raining, grab your umbrella and come on out, market will go on rain or shine. However, if the rain comes along with thunder or lightning, our first priority is to make sure everyone is safe. If you are planning to come to market and severe weather is in the forecast, make sure to check the Marion Chamber of Commerce facebook page (@MarionIAChamber) frequently. We will post any announcements there.

If you are at Uptown Marion Market when weather becomes an issue, please follow these guidelines:
  • If lightning has been spotted, people will be asked to leave the market area or be directed to their vehicles until 30 minutes have passed lightning/thunder free.
  • If more than 60 minutes have passed and the storm continues or the Market Master can verify an extended storm cell’s presence exceeding the remaining open hours of the Market, the Market will be closed for the day.

Vendors

Please visit the Vendor Information section to review the handbook and application forms.
