The Dawson Creek Farmers’ Market will start its 2026 season on May 2, 2026, at the Ovintiv Events Centre in Dawson Creek, British Columbia. This move to the city’s primary events facility provides a reliable and consistent spot for residents to find local products every week.

The market will be open every Saturday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM throughout the spring and summer months. Visitors can expect to find a wide selection of items from regional growers, bakers, and makers, according to Tourism Dawson Creek.

The Ovintiv Events Centre, which was formerly known as the Encana Events Centre, offers a climate-controlled environment for the weekly event. This transition ensures that the community can support local artisans regardless of the weather conditions in the region.

The market serves as a central hub for the Peace River area, helping local producers connect directly with their neighbours. Organizers encourage residents to visit the venue to support the regional agricultural and artisanal community.
