Vancouver Farmers Markets runs the West End market in the 1100 block of Comox Street, between Bute and Thurlow beside Nelson Park. More than 30 farms and producers come each Saturday, and food and coffee trucks join them. The 2026 season runs from 9 am to 2 pm between 2 May and 31 October.
BC Hydro is planning a substation project at Nelson Park, and neighbours have raised concerns about the park's trees, its community garden and whether the market can carry on there. Vancouver Farmers Markets counts BC Hydro among the market's sponsors. It says the tie helps it press for what vendors and shoppers need, from access to essential infrastructure to steps that soften the construction work.
Ride the bus to Davie Street or Robson Street at Thurlow and walk a few blocks. Most parking around the park is for residents with permits. The closest meters are on Burrard and Davie streets, and a few sit on Thurlow just north of Nelson Park.
Worth knowing
- Leave the car at the hotel, because nearly all the parking around Nelson Park is resident permit parking.
- Check the vendor listing and market map on the market's page before you go.
