It’s hard to believe we’re already here… our FINAL Pearl Street Market of the 2026 season! 💛

What a summer it has been. Week after week, our community has shown up to shop local, enjoy the music, grab some great food, and support the vendors and businesses that make this market so special.

So for one last Thursday, we’d love to see the park packed.

Join us Thursday, September 3 for our Season Closer and help us send off an amazing 2026 season the right way!

🛍️ And of course, one last chance to support our incredible local vendors!

📍 Veteran’s Memorial Park | 3400 Pearl Street, McHenry
🛍️ Market opens at 5 PM

Come hungry, bring a chair, bring your friends, and help us make our last night of the season one to remember. We’d love to end this incredible summer with all of you there. ❤️
