The Lane County Farmers Market is reviving its popular once-a-month evening market for summer and fall 2025, offering Eugene residents local food, drinks and entertainment.

Thursday Night Markets are held at the Farmers Market Pavilion and Plaza on the third Thursday of each month from July through October, running from 5-9 p.m.

For this year’s series, organizers are bringing in food trucks including La Queretana tacos and Pizzeria DOP, along with a beer garden featuring Oregon craft beer, wine, cider and kombucha.

Sweet treats include Horai’s fresh cookies and Ghost Oak’s shaved ice. Visitors can browse handmade artisan goods from Eugene Saturday Market vendors, while enjoying live music curated by the Jazz Station, ranging from upbeat jazz to smooth acoustic sets.

The evening markets aim to provide a “lively yet laidback environment to socialize and decompress,” said Orion Lawrenz, Lane County Farmers Market’s programming and marketing manager. 

Lawrenz said many Thursday Night Market attendees take advantage of the after-work hours to shop for fresh, local produce for the week while enjoying the atmosphere.

Thursday Night Market will happen: 

  • July 17
  • Aug. 21
  • Sept. 18
  • Oct. 16
