Ladner Sunday Summer Markets
The Ladner Village Market takes place in Ladner along 48th Avenue between Elliott Street and Delta Street. The heart of the market is in the area of 5028A 48th Street, but it runs for a couple of blocks in various directions.
The market usually happens rain or shine from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm on seven Sundays of the year. It features artisan goods and live music when possible.

About the Ladner Village Market
The Ladner Village Market celebrates its 28th year in 2024. It’s one of the largest summer markets in Canada west of Ontario and typically features over 150 vendors per time.
The market isn’t a “farmers’ market,” and it isn’t specifically an “artisan market” either. There are vendors selling fresh produce, but not a large percentage. There are numerous artists selling their creations, though. So it’s like a farmers’ and artisan market that’s “light” on the farmers’ market side, although it’s also much more!
With a theme of “Make It, Bake It, Grow It,” the market features a wide variety of handmade artisan products, baked goods, farm fresh produce and homemade food items. It also has live music and attracts thousands of shoppers on sunnier days.
If you like farmers’ markets and artisan markets, then you’ll love the Ladner Village Market. It’s huge, it has energy, it’s in an attractive location and it’s highly recommended! It’s definitely one of our favourites!
