While generally Manhattan Street Fairs begin in April, last year [2025] we started going year round by including the winter months. We started by identifying some of the year round markets, which while not exactly street fairs, contain some of the elements of the street fair experience including an eclectic offering of merchandise and food items. This year [2026] we'll be adding new markets each week, to each month, representing the addition of dozen(s) of new listings - not shown at the beginning of each month.
We've compiled one of THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE SCHEDULE of MANHATTAN street fairs including street fair TIMES & PHOTOS & maps, some street fair names & sponsors, and street fair maps to help you find your way around during the winter, spring, summer and fall of 2026.
