Every Thursday from late March through fall, New Westminster comes alive with a weekly farmers market that draws both serious home cooks and casual shoppers looking for something beyond the grocery store routine. Located at 315 Queens Ave in Tipperary Park, this market runs from 3pm to 7pm and operates on a weekly basis, making it a reliable destination for vendors and customers alike throughout the growing season. The New West Farmers Market brings together a diverse mix of vendors, which is what makes these weekly Thursday gatherings feel like a genuine community hub rather than just a transactional shopping experience. You'll typically find farm-fresh produce from local growers, artisan and craft vendors selling handmade goods, and gourmet prepared food vendors who use market ingredients in creative ways. The mix of offerings means that different customer types show up: families picking up weekend vegetables, craft enthusiasts browsing local makers, and foodies exploring prepared food options. Food trucks add another layer to the food experience, and live music creates an atmosphere that encourages people to linger and socialize rather than rushing through their errands. For vendors, a weekly market like this offers predictable foot traffic during afternoon and early evening hours, a time when many people are transitioning from work or planning their weekends. The Thursday timing and summer-to-fall run (March 26 through October 29) means you're catching peak local growing season when produce is most abundant and when outdoor evening gatherings feel appealing to customers. Whether you're selling fresh-harvested vegetables, baked goods, crafts, prepared foods, or anything in between, the mixed vendor approach creates a broad appeal that attracts repeat customers building their weekly shopping habits around the market calendar.

Festival

The annual Hyack Festival brings New Westminster's downtown core to life over the May long weekend, transforming the area around 511 Royal Ave into a vibrant community gathering. This festival pulls together the neighborhood's residents, visitors, and a diverse vendor community for a three-day celebration that captures the spirit of spring and civic pride. The event is known for its parade, which kicks off festivities and sets the tone for the weekend ahead, drawing spectators of all ages to line the streets. The vendor village at Hyack Festival creates a dynamic marketplace where craft makers, artisans, and food vendors set up throughout downtown New Westminster. This is a mixed vendor environment, meaning you'll encounter everything from handmade goods and local crafts to food trucks and prepared foods, creating natural foot traffic and extended browsing opportunities. Attendees come expecting variety, they're not focused on a single category but rather curious to explore what's available, which works well for vendors across multiple product categories. The May long weekend timing makes this festival particularly attractive to shoppers looking to stock up on summer entertaining essentials, plants, outdoor decor, and gifts. Families use the long weekend to venture out and explore, and the parade draws significant crowds that filter through the vendor areas. The downtown location provides urban accessibility and existing infrastructure, though the festival's scale means you're tapping into both regular New Westminster residents and regional visitors taking advantage of the holiday weekend. If you sell handmade items, food products, art, crafts, or seasonal goods, Hyack Festival offers a well-established platform with strong community roots and predictable foot traffic during a prime shopping period in spring.
