About The Grandview Hop

Outdoor “pop-up” vendors and food trucks line the Grandview Hop’s OPEN STREET night market along Grandview Ave, including certain side streets during each event, making it easy for you to dine, sip, stroll and shop while you hop!

The Grandview Hop is Grandview’s community night market / street festival series. Once a month from June through September, we invite the community to our OPEN STREET Night Market along Grandview Avenue. We close Grandview Avenue for pedestrians only from 1st to 5th Avenue (a half-mile long event!) for the community to enjoy an open-air market featuring more than 250 pop-up shops and food trucks, along with live music, local art, two charity beer+wine gardens, games, giveaways, outdoor activities, and more. In addition, the Hop offers a “Community Stroll” that allows and encourages attendees to explore more than 60 local brick-and-mortar businesses, restaurants and boutiques, many of whom offer shopping deals and late night specials!

The Hop takes place from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. once a month along Grandview Avenue between 1st and 5th Avenues, with our popular open street night market featuring live music, food trucks, a charity beer garden and more. For 2024, we will expand the street closure of Grandview Ave all the way up to 5th Avenue for the first time ever!

Thousands of attendees join us during each event – which are free to attend and open to all ages (and leashed pets, too)!
