This weekend, Dilworth Park will be filled to the brim with unique finds and creative treats with the return of the Made in Philadelphia Fall Market.
The open-air seasonal shopping venue comes from the Made in Philadelphia brand (which is also responsible for other market-like ventures like Christmas Village) and a partnership with Center City District. From Friday, Oct. 18 to Sunday, Oct. 20, locals can peruse through an array of vendors from Philadelphia and the tri-state area, offering handcrafted art, photography, skincare products, culinary bites, and more.
“The Made in Philadelphia Fall Market continues to be a true celebration of local talent, craftsmanship, and community spirit,” says Christmas Village in Philadelphia CEO Thomas Bauer in a statement. “This year, we’re thrilled to host 70+ diverse and local-focused vendors, offering everything from handcrafted goods to seasonal food offerings. It’s not just a market—it’s an experience where families and friends can come together, enjoy the crisp fall air, and make lasting memories at the heart of our city.”
Now in its 7th season, the artful pop-up will be open from noon to 6 p.m. over its three-day run. The no-charge outdoor event also features food, drinks, and arts and crafts available for purchase (on top of all of the hand-made goodies from vendors.)
While walking through the Made in Philadelphia Fall Market, locals can find lavender products and room sprays from Fairy Greens, handmade ceramics from Caitlin Davis Ceramics, handcrafted goods from Morocco from Little Marrakesh Bazaar, handcrafted cutting boards from Steves Urban Lumber, three dimensional paintings and decor from Moss & Canvas, hair accessories and tools for curly hair from Joiful Bee, dog treats from Black Sheep Dog Treats and more.
Some brands will boast localized finds — like Love City Print Co. offering Philly-themed art prints, candles, and glassware, and ArtbyAlicia selling Philly art prints. Others will offer ready-to-eat treats like roasted corn from Husky Jawn, bao buns from Bao & Bun, cookies from Swan Delectables and macarons from Woops.
While there this weekend, locals can also check out Maze Days, a new 10-day activation at Dilworth Park’s Albert M. Greenfield Lawn that opens this Thursday, Oct. 17. New this season, Maze Days will feature a series of events spanning children’s storytime, live pumpkin carving, and more. On Saturdays (Oct. 19 and 26), Philadelphians can expect a day-long schedule of activities, including music, fresh apple cider making, a stein-hoisting contest hosted by Broad Street Brewing, Not So Silent Cinema, trivia with prizes and more, a release notes.
