❤️✨️ It's the people that make Port Hardy so special! ❤️✨️

Connecting with community at events like the Port Hardy Evening Street Market is what celebrating Port Hardy is all about.

Gathering, sharing, and making memories.

Come share your favourite Port Hardy story or memory with our team, pick up your own set of the limited edition birthday buttons, sip a delicous birthday mocktail, or take home a few seeds of Port Hardy's very own official flower, Nasturiums.

See you this evening!

Along with our local makers and artisans, the Evening Street Market is also an opportunity to connect with the community.

Get to know some of the amazing organizations that help make our region stronger, safer, and more connected. They will be joining us with community information booths and they are looking forward to the quality conversations that originate at these events.

Learn about wildfire preparedness with FireSmart Port Hardy, find out how to keep wildlife wild and communities safe from WildSafeBC, celebrate inclusion with Tri-Port Pride Society, discover how you can support the Terry Fox Run through Port Hardy Recreation, find out what's coming up at the North Island Film Fest, and cheers to the District of Port Hardy’s 60th anniversary with complimentary mocktails.

Whether you're looking to get involved, learn something new, volunteer, or simply meet the people making a difference in our community, these booths are a great place to start.

Come say hello, ask questions, and discover the programs, events, and resources available right here in our community.
Community starts with connection.

We look forward to seeing you at the Evening Street Market this Friday, August 14, on Market Street in downtown Port Hardy.

At the heart of every market we've seen the values that define Port Hardy.

❤️ ️Strength.
❤️ Resiliencency.
❤️ Caring.
❤️ Kindness.

These are more than values —they are the fabric of Port Hardy, woven into how we show up, support one another, and come together as a community. This is what makes Port Hardy truly special.✨️

We are ready to go for the third and final of the three-event series of Port Hardy Evening Street Market and can't wait to see you there!
