On the Côte-Nord, in Havre-Saint-Pierre, the public market describes itself as the meeting place for the artisans of the Minganie. You can discover local talent and taste regional products there on Saturdays, on the Promenade des Anciens.
Why go? To meet the people who produce and make things in the region, and to combine your shopping with a stroll by the sea.
Minganie artisans and regional products
The market has 4 to 12 booths, according to the listing of the Association des Marchés publics du Québec (AMPQ), Quebec’s public market association. For food, you’ll find fresh vegetables and fruit, jams and pickles, herbs and spices, prepared meals, bread and pastries, herbal teas, tea and coffee, as well as alcoholic beverages. Flowers and plants add to the offering, and crafts take centre stage.
On site, the AMPQ mentions a picnic area, washrooms, food booths, car and bike parking and free Wi-Fi. And if you want to keep the local habit after the season, our tips for eating more local food in Quebec can help.
Holiday season: no market announced
The Marché public Havre-Saint-Pierre is a seasonal market. In 2026, it was held every Saturday from July 11 to October 3, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and its season is now over. Neither the AMPQ listing nor the Tourisme Havre-Saint-Pierre website mentions a Christmas or holiday market. For any questions, the AMPQ listing refers to the contact details of Tourisme Havre-Saint-Pierre, the local tourism office.
Good to know: the Promenade des Anciens
The market is held at 999, promenade des Anciens. Tourisme Havre-Saint-Pierre describes this promenade as a long walkway with views of the islands, the beach and the sea, lined with interpretation panels, with a few terraces, tables here and there and access to the beach. Nearby, at 997, the Place des artisans, linked to the Association des artisans de la Minganie, showcases local and regional crafts, a few steps from the wharf.
The Tourisme Havre-Saint-Pierre office is on the same promenade, at 1010 (Portail Pélagie-Cormier). To learn more about why these small markets matter, read our article on the benefits of local markets.
