Murrieta Market Nights are held on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month, between 5 p.m. – 9 p.m., in the heart of Downtown Murrieta. Each event brings hundreds of shoppers to downtown, with street closures for vendors and entertainment occurring along Washington Avenue and Juniper Street. Visitors enjoy a diverse range of vendors, music, food, and activities. Artisans, crafters, local businesses, musicians, and artists bring creative energy to the night. An important goal of Murrieta Market Nights is supporting small and local businesses, as well as participating artists.
