Charlottesville City Market canceled for July 18 due to heat and air quality
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – The Charlottesville City Market has been canceled for Saturday, July 18, due to forecasted hazardous weather conditions, including a Heat Advisory and unhealthy air quality.
The decision was made out of an abundance of caution to protect the health and safety of the market's vendors, customers, volunteers, performers, and staff. Market vendors and staff spend extended periods outdoors setting up, operating, and breaking down the market, and the combination of extreme heat and poor air quality creates an increased risk of heat-related illness and respiratory issues.
The Charlottesville City Market is expected to resume its regular schedule on Saturday, July 25, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at 100 E. Water Street in downtown Charlottesville.
Customers are encouraged to continue supporting local vendors throughout the week by coming to Farmers in the Park (Wednesday at Pen Park), visiting their farm stands, retail locations, and online stores where available.
