A new open-air market is coming to the heart of Center City this Labor Day Weekend. The Made in Philadelphia Summer Market will take over Dilworth Park — on the west side of City Hall at 1 S 15th St — from Friday, September 4 through Sunday, September 6, 2026, marking the debut of a summer edition in the established Made in Philadelphia Market Series.
60+ Vendors Spanning Art, Food, Fashion, and More
More than 60 makers, crafters, artists, and small businesses from Philadelphia, the tri-state area, and beyond will fill Dilworth Park across the three-day weekend. Shoppers can browse handmade jewelry, fine-art collages, upcycled clothing, skincare, specialty foods, home goods, and one-of-a-kind gifts. Among the confirmed vendors are Carmona Mobile Foods (fresh made-to-order lemonades), Fairy Greens Lavender Farm (lavender candles and soaps), Bookish (fine-art collages made from recycled materials), and Terri the Honey Lady (raw, unfiltered honey). A full vendor list will be published on the official website in the coming weeks.
Part of a Year-Round Series at Dilworth Park
The Summer Market is the second installment in a three-event 2026 season organized by the team behind Christmas Village in Philadelphia, in cooperation with the Center City District. A Fall Market follows October 9–11, and the flagship Holiday Market runs November 13, 2026 through January 1, 2027.
“In partnership with the Center City District, we are proud to activate Dilworth Park year-round, creating spaces where local businesses can thrive and the community can gather throughout every season,” said CEO Thomas Bauer.

The market runs Friday and Saturday from 12 PM to 8 PM and Sunday from 12 PM to 6 PM. Admission is free and the event is rain or shine.
