FAQs

Where can I find parking at the Market?

The closest, most convenient place to park is the Public Market Garage, located at 1531 Western Avenue. The cost is $3/hour. Park before 9:30am, and get the Early Bird Special of $12 for the entire day (usually $20). For a splurge, use the valet parking from 6pm to midnight Thursday through Saturday, at the Pulbic Market Clock, 1st Street and Pike Place.

Whatis the best time to visit the Market?

During the peak season of late spring, summer and early fall, get to the Market before noon when it is less crowded. Weekdays are definitely more mellow in general throughout the year.
