May through October

Downtown Hays Market

DHDC is proud to offer a yearly outdoor market in our Downtown community.

The market opens regularly on Saturdays 7:30-11:00a inside the 10th Street Pavilion between Main and Oak Streets. We encourage customers to check out the market on a regular basis since produce and merchandise will change often. Customers can shop for their weekly groceries, find unique gifts that are made from local artisans, enjoy musical talents from local artists, all within the market’s laid back atmosphere located at 10th and Main Streets underneath the Downtown Pavilion.
