Church Street Marketplace, Burlington

I love the vibe here! There was every type of shop, live music, and fun for the single traveler and family alike. There are great pictures to take and it is a short walk to the Lake Champlain shore for a great sunset.

Church Street Marketplace is an open market place about three blocks long starting from Main Street. It is a street that was blocked and for pedestrians only. Church Street is lined up with shops and restaurants along with Burlington VT City Hall. We were there during the Festival of the Fools and we don't know why it's called it like that 😂 There were various street performers who came from all over the country to perform on that day. We had a great time, and it's a great experience.

5.14.22 If you enjoy people watching, this is the place. I'm not an attention getter so was a bit surprised by the number of freaks and people dressed in such ways that you just had to stare. There's a time and place for everything so if you have little kids with you, be prepared to see just about anything. On the positive, there are great food venues, music, good energy, and the streets were clean.

Burlington is a great town. Our first stop on our trip to Canada. Church St. Market place had live music. The city has a wonderful vibe. Lots of pedestrian friendly areas all around the college and down town. Good restaurants, shopping, activities, etc. All sitting right on the edge of lake Champlain. Definately a stop in or a fun place to spend a few days

Great pedestrianized road. Tons of cool shops and eateries. We stopped in at a lot of places and there was so much to look at. No cars, lots of walking room. We stopped to watch a magic show and listen to some music. Wonderful on a Saturday afternoon.
