Montreal’s public markets do not provide guided tours. However, a variety of private organizations offer such tours.
Atwater and Jean Talon markets are open year-round thanks to temporary walls that shelter merchants and shoppers during the cold months. In May, we remove these walls and open up more outdoor space for farmers and horticulturists for the summer season. The walls are reinstalled in October.
The two streets called Marché-du-Nord are reserved for pedestrians from June 1 to October 15, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Thursday through Sunday and on public holidays. All summer, activities are organized on these streets. At all other times, these streets are open to vehicles.
We are always looking for farmers and horticulturists, artisans and processors, restaurateurs and specialized retailers to help diversify product offerings and enliven our markets. Rental opportunities ranging from weekends to seasons to multi-year leases are available.

The Kiosques de la Relève are turnkey spaces available by the day at Jean Talon, Atwater and Maisonneuve markets in summertime. They are intended for young, local farmers and processors, offering them an opportunity to meet and sell directly to local consumers. This initiative of Montreal’s public markets facilitates access to the city’s markets for young companies. It is assisted by 50% financial support from the Union des producteurs agricoles. The Kiosques are open from May to October as a way to introduce consumers to Quebec’s new generation of food and agriculture professionals.
