The Kingston Public Market -since 1801

The heart of a city is its market. Friends and neighbours gather to shop from their friends and neighbours. Stories are told, hugs exchanged, news of the day discussed and community is celebrated in a most simple yet pleasurable way.
For 200 years The Kingston Public Market has been a gathering place for citizens and visitors alike. Being a busy lake port, centre for ship building, an established military garrison, and centre of national politics, Kingston has seen its share of travellers from all over the world.The market remains to this day, a welcoming place where people come together to experience and shop in a open air market brimming with the bounty of the earth and the work of gifted hands and minds.
We invite you to experience the market, the heart of our beautiful historic city. Support your neighbours, buy local and contribute to the vibrancy and sustainability of Kingston.
