Our Story
A group of midtown leaders started the Rockford Midtown Market on Saturday twice in 2018 and had a great response. We decided to have 15 weekly market dates in 2019, attracting almost 1,800 people into the Midtown District for these Saturday morning events. With the 2019 year’s success behind us, and with the COVID-19 situation altering our 2020-2022 plans a bit from what we were originally planning, we got back onto a more-regular Market for the 2023 Summer season and a 2023-24 Winter-Spring Indoor Market, and continued the same success weekly through the Summer of 2024 and Monthly on Saturdays throughout the Winter-Spring seasons of 2024-5. We are now planning a weekly Outdoor Rockford Midtown Market for 2025, which happens Thursday mornings from 9 a.m. – 12:45 p.m. We encourage you to follow us on most Social Media platforms and to sign up for our email list to get information as soon as we release it.
We hope to see YOU in Midtown for another successful market year!
THANK YOU to our sponsors!
