Another year, another session of Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market. On seven Sundays this year, the streets of Kensington Market are closed to cars and the market becomes a pedestrian piazza, one giant street party. Take some time out and roam Kensington and maybe the car-free idea can eventually be permanent or grow to other areas. Each Sunday has a theme, and this week's is Spring:
Festivities begin with a Maypole celebration at Baldwin and Augusta - 1pm
Afro Brazilian Marching Band - Maracatu Nunca Antes - will be roving the market from 3 - 4pm
Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market - Calendar:
- Richard Underhill's Kensington Horns Community Band
