Monumental Farmers’ Market at Monument Square

Monumental Farmers’ Market uses Monument Square and Monument Way in downtown Portland. The City of Portland approved a 2026 license for Portland Downtown, Inc. to operate an outdoor farmers’ market on the first Friday of each month from June through October, 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. The organizer’s public description presents it as a mix of local Maine farmers, makers and crafters, an urban format that places food stalls in the civic and arts district rather than in a park.

The licensed 2026 dates have ended, and the sources checked for this guide do not yet give a 2027 calendar. Portland Downtown’s general page describes a summer market in Monument Square, but the dated city agreement is the more precise source for the 2026 frequency and hours. Use the organizer’s page for any new season announcement before making a trip. This venue is included as a verified recent series, not as a claim that it is currently open weekly.
