We love it when kids have fun at the Kitchener Market! Bring your little ones to enjoy live music, art, free community events, DIY workshops, cooking classes and more! Our programming fosters a safe and fun environment where kids can express themselves and learn new skills. 

Need a snack while visiting the Market? Stop by the Food Hall for a variety of healthy and kid-friendly options from around the world. Visit our Food Hall page for hours and current vendors. 

Does your child have a birthday or other celebration coming up? Consider renting our Marketplace event venue. Our team customizes each rental to your specific needs, making your event unforgettable.
