Vintage Market Returns to Yonge + St. Clair: Midtown Market 2026 Recap

Midtown Market is back @ Yonge + St. Clair

A curated vintage market hosted by Good Friends Market in collaboration with the Yonge + St. Clair BIA

On August 5 and 6 from 4-8pm, Ossington flair took over Yonge + St. Clair. Transforming the parking lot beside Shoppers Drug Mart at 1501 Yonge, the Yonge + St. Clair BIA and Good Friends Market hosted an evening vintage market featuring 20+ vendors, yummy eats, live music, and good vibes.

Midtown Toronto came alive after work and it wasn’t just seen in the parking lot. Along the streets there were vibrant street decals redirecting foot traffic and office workers to visit the market, and visit they did. With ~3000 people the energy was magnetic and showed just how animated Midtown can be when the community comes together.

Weather Be Damned

Even amongst the rain on day two, the crowds did not let up with neighbours lingering, coworkers caught up over street food, portraits being taken, and visitors spending hours chatting directly with vendors to hear the stories behind their vintage finds.

Some unique pieces and attractions we found from the vendors include:

Antique Bangles and Jewelry from Chosen By Cynthia

Safety Pin Keychains from The Corduroy Cat

Handmade Instant Portraits from The Bellows

Toast Lights from Tony Art Goods

We want to thank all the vendors at the market who made this possible, and Good Friends Market for coming back for the 2nd year running. And a special thank you to everyone in the neighbourhood who showed up and hung out with us.

What’s next

Summer isn’t over just quite yet. This Sunday, August 23rd, from 12-5pm, the same parking lot at 1501 Yonge is being transformed into a Barket Market for your furry best friend. RSVP for free and stay up to date with event updates and details here.
