The Beaverton Farmers Market has six Saturdays left in its 2026 summer and fall season. The Everything Funky Neighborhood Night Market has two dates left at the Beaverton City Library. Those two dates are also market Saturdays, so on October 24 and November 14 the few blocks around the library have a market in the morning and another one in the evening. After November 14, that combination ends for the year.
Two markets, one block, a gap in the middle
The farmers market sets up on SW Hall Boulevard between 3rd and 5th, across from the City Library. It runs Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., and the official schedule lists November 21 as the last day of the regular season.
The night market uses the library itself, Beaverton Library at 12375 SW 5th St. Organizer FUNKTHATBOX lists the October and November editions from 5:00 to 9:30 p.m. at that address. The Beaverton Downtown Association describes it as a monthly outdoor evening market with local vendors, food trucks, live music, and family entertainment. Each month has a theme, and admission is free.
That leaves a three-and-a-half-hour gap on the same block between 1:30 and 5:00. On a double Saturday, that gap shapes the day. You can make two trips, or you can treat downtown as an afternoon destination and fill the time at nearby restaurants. Our summer roundup of Beaverton's new restaurants covers many of the places within walking distance.
The October date needs a quick note before you put it on the calendar. The Downtown Beaverton Association's series overview lists the Stranger Things night market on October 10. The association's own page for that event and the organizer's site both say Saturday, October 24, at the library. October 24 is the date the event-specific listings agree on.
October 24 starts the year's busiest weekend downtown
The first double Saturday is followed by Booverton on Sunday. That makes October 24 and 25 the most packed weekend on the downtown calendar this fall. Here is how it lays out, using only published times:
- Saturday, 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The farmers market on SW Hall Boulevard between 3rd and 5th.
- Saturday, 5:00 to 9:30 p.m. The Everything Funky Stranger Things Night Market at the library, with pumpkin painting, a haunted maze, a costume contest, raffle prizes, and Halloween activities for families.
- Sunday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Booverton, run by the Beaverton Downtown Association. A free Boo Bus loops around downtown, participating businesses hand out treats, and there's live music at the 1st Street Dining Commons at SW Washington Avenue and SW 1st Street.
- Sunday, 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. A costume contest and family dance party at Breakside Brewery, with prizes and guest judges.
Kids with costumes get two chances at a contest in about 24 hours, once at the library Saturday night and once at Breakside on Sunday afternoon. Cedar Mill News points readers to the Booverton Facebook event page for updates. That's the place to check if the weather turns.
Booverton also brings the weekend back to the 1st Street Dining Commons. That block is still a closed-off stretch of street used for shared outdoor dining. The City of Beaverton's plans for a permanent commons are still early. They include upgraded sidewalks, trees, streetlights, and the infrastructure to close the street easily for events, and the city expects a project charter this fall. For now, it works as an event space that comes alive when someone books it.
November 14 is the last double Saturday
The second shared date is quieter. The farmers market runs its usual morning hours. That same morning, the Patricia Reser Center for the Arts hosts the Save the LP Record Show starting at 10:00 a.m. That evening, the library hosts the Harvest & Holiday Night Market from 5:00 to 9:30 p.m.
A week later, on November 21, the farmers market has its final regular Saturday. That evening, The Reser hosts the Django Festival Allstars. There's no night market that night. The organizer's published dates stop at November 14.
After that, the morning market goes quiet. In 2026, the farmers market's winter market ran Saturdays in February and March, 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., at the same Hall Boulevard spot across from the library. The market's online calendar shows no December holiday market. The 2027 winter dates haven't been posted yet, so check the market's site after the new year.
Here are the remaining Saturdays, side by side:
| Saturday | Morning at the farmers market | Evening at or near the library block |
|---|---|---|
| October 10 | Regular market | Comedy at The Reser: A Night of Stand-Up, 7:30 p.m. |
| October 17 | Regular market plus the Kids Markets pop-up | Free Open Studios Tour continues countywide through Sunday |
| October 24 | Regular market | Stranger Things Night Market at the library, 5:00 to 9:30 p.m. |
| October 31 | Regular market | No library night market listed |
| November 7 | Regular market | Hung Dance at The Reser, part of its November 5 to 7 run |
| November 14 | Regular market; Save the LP Record Show at The Reser from 10:00 a.m. | Harvest & Holiday Night Market at the library, 5:00 to 9:30 p.m. |
| November 21 | Last regular-season market | Django Festival Allstars at The Reser |
The Saturdays without a night market still have something on
October 17 is the best of the regular Saturdays. The Downtown Beaverton Association lists a Kids Markets pop-up at the farmers market that day, where young sellers run their own booths. That weekend is also the 16th annual Washington County Open Studios Tour, October 17 and 18. It's a free, self-guided tour of 50 local artists' working studios, with live demonstrations.
The Reser covers the same weekend from its side of downtown. Its free gallery has Converge 45 presentations through October 18, so October 17 is the last Saturday to see them. This is The Reser's fifth-anniversary season, which it calls its most culturally expansive yet. The October 10 comedy night is the first stand-up show in the Reser Presents series, and the theme is five years, five comedians.
Weeknights fill in between the Saturdays
The Saturday markets are the anchors, but several downtown evenings between them have their own events:
- Friday, October 9, 7:30 p.m. Literary Arts and The Reser present author Min Jin Lee in conversation with Mitchell S. Jackson about her new book.
- Thursday, October 15, 7:30 p.m. Flor de Toloache brings its mariachi show to The Reser.
- Friday, October 16 Lionheart Coffee Company hosts a beginner watercolor class with artist Beth Pansino. Students paint Silver Falls in autumn, and the class costs $40.
- Tuesday, October 20 Syndicate hosts an author evening for Witchcraft in the Cul de Sac, with a conversation and signed copies.
- November 5 to 7 Hung Dance performs at The Reser.
Most of these events are a short walk from the market block. That makes it easy to stay downtown after dinner even on a weeknight. If you're new to the area, our Beaverton neighborhood page has more about downtown and the parts of the city around it.
If you're coming by MAX or bus
The Beaverton Transit Center at 4050 SW Lombard Avenue is in the middle of a TriMet makeover. Work started in spring 2026 and is expected to continue through spring 2027. The center stays open, and MAX, WES, and buses all still serve it. Bus stops may move temporarily as the work goes on. If you're riding to a night market and catching a bus home after 9:30, it's worth checking where your stop is before you head out. The finished project will add new digital signs with text-to-speech announcements, better lighting, more room for buses, and accessibility features like ramps and tactile strips.
If you're planning around these Saturdays and wondering how the walk from the library block to your own front door might look in another part of Beaverton, I'm happy to talk it through.
