Parking:

There are two parking lots on site: the upper parking lot (entrance off of L’Arche Way) and lower parking lot (located off of Mabou Harbour Road). You are welcome to park in either.

Pets:

We love your pets! However, Public Health restrictions mean we cannot welcome pets inside the Market. Service animals are allowed with proper identification.

Accessibility:

Our building is wheelchair accessible. The upper parking lot is level with the entrance to the market, making it barrier-free. Please note that there are stairs to reach the entrance from the lower parking lot. There is a ramp into the arena so wheelchairs, scooters and strollers can access the Market. We have wide aisles, with lots of room for everyone to move, shop and enjoy our Market.

Washrooms:

Public washrooms are available on site. Women’s washrooms are located just to the right after entering the front doors. Men’s washrooms are down the hall on the right and around the corner at the end of the hall.

Water Cooler:

In addition to cold beverages sold by vendors, we offer a courtesy water cooler located near our dining area. Bring your own water bottle to fill.

Market Table & Market Money:

The Market Table is located on the right after entering through the main doors. You will find market staff answering questions, selling Market merchandise, and selling Market Money. In lieu of having an ATM on site, Market Money can be purchased using a debit or credit card and then used like currency at the market. It is offered in denominations of $5 and $25. If you don’t use the entire amount in one transaction, you will receive your change back in cash from the vendor. Market Money doesn’t expire and makes a great gift!

Playground:

The playground is for everyone! Please enjoy and please clean up after yourself using the waste receptacles located on site. Thank you!
