Coming up this Friday at Rockford City Market

Thanks to everyone who braved the storms and attended last week's market. Despite the severe weather, nearly a dozen vendors were able to continue selling, and they found plenty of customers willing to withstand the rain.

Rockford City Market has added several new vendors since opening week, so you now have nearly 30 vendor booths to browse each Friday. New vendors will be joining the market in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for updates!

Here's what to expect at the market this Friday, June 25:

New Market Vendors
Four new vendors will join Rockford City Market this week!

With Bliss Beads Studio & Gallery you can buy finished jewelry, or purchase beads and jewelry components for creating your own original piece right at the market.

Satisfy your sweet tooth with Northwoods Premium Confections, including toffee, fudge, gourmet pretzel rods, popcorn balls and candied apples.

Stop by Smooth and have your tarot cards read or receive a Fijian massage, a deep compression massage using the therapist's feet.

All of your favorite vendors from previous weeks will also be back, some with new offerings, so make sure to visit them as well!
