Market at the Garden: Things to Do in Huntsville

Looking for fun things to do in Huntsville this week? The Market at the Garden is back at the Huntsville Botanical Garden tonight, Wednesday, August 20, from 5:00 – 7:00 PM. This seasonal open-air shopping experience is one of the most popular Huntsville events of the summer and early fall, bringing together local vendors, handmade goods, and fresh-grown products.

A Huntsville Tradition at the Botanical Garden

The Market is held at the scenic Grisham Pavilion, located just inside the Garden gates near the Dogwood Parking Lot. It’s easy to stop by after work, bring your family, or meet up with friends for a midweek outing. Best of all, no Garden admission is required to enjoy the Market.

What You’ll Find at the Market

• Local vendors showcasing handmade crafts, fresh produce, and specialty items

• A relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere perfect for an evening out

• Free admission and convenient parking in the Dogwood Lot

Pro Tip: If you’re a Garden member, take advantage of your free admission to stroll through the Botanical Garden before shopping. Non-members can also explore the Garden with regular paid admission (open until 6:00 PM) before heading to the Market.
