Sidewalk Sale

Ottawa Street Sidewalk Sale

Ottawa Street North comes alive for a full day of shopping, music, and community celebration. Join us for a road closure event running from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., as the corridor transforms into an open-air market stretching along the sidewalks and roadway from Main Street to Barton Street.

Browse an exceptional lineup of Ottawa Street’s brick-and-mortar businesses and pop-up vendors as part of the Thrift Crawl, offering secondhand finds, vintage pieces, antiques, home décor, fabric, and more, all in one walkable stretch. Whether you are hunting for a specific treasure or just along for the experience, there is no shortage of things to discover.

Live music sets the tone throughout the day, featuring performances from Folk N’ Spoken Word Fest and Mixtape Rewind. Families are welcome to enjoy free activities at East Kiwanis Place parkette, making it a great outing for all ages. And with so much more happening along the corridor, the best plan is simply to show up and see where the day takes you.

Admission is free. Come early, stay late, and shop local.

Thank you to the City of Hamilton and Ward 4 for your generous donations towards this event.
