The Downtown Market is a HIGHLIGHT of a Grand Rapids experience. It serves a million and ten roles (OK, that might be a little bit of an exaggeration, but seriously, you’ll find a ton there!) and makes for the perfect afternoon excursion!
First and foremost, it is an indoor (and sometimes outdoor) market filled with amazing vendors–who we will highlight below!
