Chicago is a city teeming with markets in varying forms. From the 111-year-old Maxwell Street Market to an abundance of local farmers markets, it is during the spring and summer seasons, however when they truly peak.
Now, with more and more turning indoors to keep going during the colder seasons, a new market will kick off this weekend in South Loop’s Roosevelt Collection Shops event space in partnership with South Loop Farmers Market.
Beginning Saturday, January 6, Chicagoans will have an opportunity to escape the chilly winter temps and enjoy a brand-new indoor market located at 150 W. Roosevelt Rd. every Saturday from 9 am – 1 pm through March 30th.
In addition to nearly 50 local vendors, there will be an array of entertainment and activities such as vendor demos, specialty chef dinners, fitness events, and performances on market days and throughout the week.
According to the release, a full lineup of entertainment is soon to be announced.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with the South Loop Farmers Market on this experience to bring an exciting glimpse of Spring and Summer to Chicago this Winter,” said Julie Cameron, General Manager of the Roosevelt Collection Shops.
“Our 150 West event space is the perfect place to host these vendors, situated right in the middle of all of the action here at our center. We look forward to welcoming neighbors and newcomers alike to experience a truly incredible market and much more this Winter, all while supporting hard-working local vendors!”
