Each year, North Market is closed on New Year’s Day, Easter Sunday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. Additionally, North Market typically closes early on the day of Red, White, and Boom (typically the day before Independence Day), Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve. We ask that our merchants maintain the same holiday hours as the main Market House, however, some may offer abbreviated hours based on the nature of their business. When planning your trip, if you would like to visit a specific merchant, we recommend contacting them beforehand to confirm they’ll be open.
