Handmade & craft
Ceramics, candles, jewellery and woodwork — the kind of detail only a maker fusses over.
One day · Kitchener–Waterloo–Cambridge
Where local makers meet Main Street — a one-day market of KWC's makers, small brands and independent shops, all under one roof. Come meet your neighbours and take a little of their work home.
Why Market & Main
From local makers to independent shops and small brands — every table here belongs to a KWC small business, never a big-box chain.
Shop here and your money stays in the neighbourhood, going straight to a local owner. Bring a tote, bring a friend, and come find your next favourite local spot.
Every business is rooted right here in Kitchener, Waterloo or Cambridge.
Handmade goods, small brands and curated finds you won't see on a big-box shelf.
Open to everyone, family-friendly, and easy to drop into for an hour or three.
What you'll find
From the things you'll eat that afternoon to the ones you'll keep for years.
