Sandy Springs plans Nov. 5 Night Market as an after-work shopping alternative
The free event at River Springs Shopping Center is part of a trial evening series, with sellers limited to approved 2026 Sandy Springs Farmers Market vendors.
Explore the source documentsSandy Springs is offering an alternative to Saturday-morning market shopping: a Thursday evening on the city's north end. Its Night Market is scheduled for Nov. 5 from 5 to 8 p.m. at River Springs Shopping Center, 8610 Roswell Road.[1][2]
The city describes the fall series as an after-work extension of its Saturday outdoor market. For now, it is a test, and the opportunity is broader for shoppers than for prospective sellers: participation is limited to vendors already approved for the 2026 Sandy Springs Farmers Market.[1][3]
The city's November event listing anticipates more than 30 local farmers, food producers, artisans and specialty vendors, with fresh products, handcrafted goods and prepared foods. That is the advertised lineup, not a confirmed attendance count.[2]
Admission is free. The city says the market will operate rain or shine unless severe weather requires cancellation, with weather-related updates posted on its Facebook page.[3]
