Tomorrow’s Boston Open Market will run with adjusted hours: 10AM–3PM instead of our usual 12–5.

As many of you know, we’re a rain or shine market — but with rain expected later in the afternoon, we’ve decided to shift the hours earlier to help maximize the dry weather and give both shoppers and vendors the best experience possible. Come spend the morning and early afternoon with us on Boylston Street alongside the Boston Public Garden! You’ll find a curated mix of local makers, artists, vintage dealers, and small businesses, plus springtime in the city is always a good idea.

📍 Boylston Street between Arlington & Charles Street
🕙 Adjusted Hours Tomorrow: 10AM–3PM
☔️ Rain or Shine
FREE to attend
See you tomorrow, Boston! #

Opening Day at the Boston Open Market came in cold and on-and-off rainy… and you all still showed up for us!

Boston, you never disappoint. 🤍

From the moment we opened, the sidewalks along Boylston Street were filled with people browsing, supporting, chatting with our makers, and proving (once again) that this city shows up for small businesses no matter the weather. That kind of energy means everything—not just to us, but to every artist, vintage dealer, and independent business that puts their heart into what they do.

So thank you!

We’re just getting started—catch us every Saturday through the end of October, right along Boylston Street between Arlington & Charles, across from the Public Garden.

Better weather is ahead… but if yesterday was any indication, it doesn’t even matter 😍

We’ll be here. Come see us!

Then cross over to shop 50+ local makers, artists, and vintage dealers.
