Unfortunately, tonight’s Moonlight Market – Night 2 is canceled due to hazardous air quality from Canadian wildfire smoke.
We are making this announcement in coordination with the leadership of tonight’s Summer Series concert at the Owosso Amphitheater, which is also being canceled because of the smoke.
Official air-quality readings across our region remain at hazardous levels this morning, and today’s forecast continues to call for unhealthy conditions. Even without the heat expected later today, the air is already unsafe for our vendors, staff, performers, families, and visitors to spend several hours outside.
We hate making this call. So many of our vendors have spent days preparing, and we know how many people throughout the community were excited for tonight. We were going to unveil the market’s new semi-professional bubble machine! Hahaha. Its grand debut will just have to wait a little longer.
The good news is that we are working to add another Thursday at the end of the Moonlight Market series as a makeup night! We anticipate that being Thursday, August 13, from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM at Curwood Castle Park, and we will share a firm confirmation as soon as everything is finalized.
Please stay safe today, limit unnecessary time outdoors, and check on friends, family members, and neighbors who may be especially vulnerable to wildfire smoke.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support of Moonlight Market. We will see you back along the river soon!
