Step Out Buffalo’s most-loved spring market is BACK — and yes, we listened 👀
This year’s Easter Makers + Shakers: Boozy Artisan Market is pulling a double feature: TWO weekends + Night Markets BOTH Fridays. Because one weekend was simply not enough for this level of sophisticated retail therapy.
📍 March 27–29 (weekend before Easter)
📍 April 3–4 (Easter weekend)
📍 The Buffalo Powerhouse
We’re talking 125+ local makers under one (very cool) roof. Come stock up on all the Easter essentials — pierogi, butter lambs, chocolates, baked goods — while also getting wildly ahead on Mother’s Day gifting. Multitasking never looked this cute.
And yes… it’s boozy 🍸
Sip free samples from local booze makers, build your dream Bloody Mary, try seasonal cocktails, hit the food trucks, and enter giveaways at literally every. single. vendor. Dangerous behavior for your tote bag? Possibly. Should that stop you? Of course not.
You’ll find all the things you didn’t know you needed made by Buffalo’s best:
Home goods, candles, jewelry, apparel, Buffalo stuff, gourmet foods, paper goods, beauty & spa goodies, art, craft booze, gifts, and then some.

💛 FEEDMORE WNY FOOD DRIVE
While you’re shopping, help us give back. We’re hosting a FeedMore WNY food drive at the event — bring non-perishable items like cereal, canned goods, nut butters, pasta, rice, baby food, diapers, or formula.
Drop donations at the barrel near the entrance and feel like a good human while holding a cocktail. Elite combo.

Two weekends. Night markets. Local everything.
Consider your next shopping spree plans - handled. 🛍️🍹
