Wheaton French Market To Open April 9 In Temporary Location

WHEATON, IL — Wheaton's French Market is set to open April 9 to kick off its 2022 season. The open-air market will once again be in a temporary location to permit crews to work on the pavilion that's being built downtown on Liberty Drive.

Until the pavilion is completed, the market will be located across from the former DuPage County Courthouse near the intersection of Liberty Drive and Reber Street. The market will be open on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. until Oct. 29. From Nov. 5 through Nov. 26, abbreviated hours of 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. will be in effect.

It's estimated that the pavilion will be complete in late spring. At that time, the French Market will relocate to the pavilion on Liberty Drive.

The Wheaton French Market will feature dozens of vendors selling baguettes, macarons, artisanal cheeses, raw honey, handmade jewelry and crafts, in addition to other items. Click the link to browse the French Market virtually. Musicians will perform live music on select days.
