37th Annual Market Days
In a few short weeks downtown 5th St will once again be closed off to vehicle traffic as shoppers take the streets for a day of shopping.
The 37th annual Market Days will take place on Friday July 20 from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in downtown Courtenay.
A pancake breakfast will kick the day off at the Filberg Centre in the upstairs conference room, and a food court will be set up at the corner of 5th and England.
The streets will be lined with tents and umbrellas as downtown murchants display their products among a mix of local and island crafters and artisans.
There will be plenty of entertainment in the form of various musical theatre groups, musicians, and performers. Kids will be entertained by balloon artist Lawrence, as well as clowns roaming about.
