2024 Season Dates TBA
DCASE Homepage > Chicago Farmers Markets > Maxwell Street Market
While we await the start of the 2024 season of Maxwell Street Market, we are happy to share our office and space on Desplaines to assist with Chicago’s new migrant arrivals. Rest assured, we are in the process of planning and will be releasing more information in the coming weeks.
We are history…we are Chicago. Our mission is to promote entrepreneurship and provide opportunities for small businesses, including farmers, artists, makers, restaurateurs and re-sellers, as we have been doing since 1912.
The Maxwell Street Market is a Chicago tradition with an eclectic mix of handmade crafts, resale housewares and clothing, live music, family fun and some of the best street food in Chicago. You never know what you’re going to find! Stop by!
