Thanks for a successful inaugural year of Night Markets, and for another fantastic summer of Bands on the Bricks. Check this page in Spring for the 2011 summer lineup.
Friday summer nights will be both hot and cool at the Rochester Public Market in 2010! A popular Rochester Public Market tradition will
be enhanced this summer with the offering of nine Night Markets (July 9-August 27) to complement its Friday night Bands on the Bricks Series.
The Night Markets will feature an eclectic mix of your favorite regular and new vendors, a wide variety of prepared foods, and a beer/wine garden. The annual Bands on the Bricks Series will complement the Night Market’s festive atmosphere with the addition of regional and national headliners such as Pandora Boxx and the Marshall Tucker Band!
