Information & guidelines for musicians/performers
The main priority of the Houston Farmer’s Market is to provide a space for local farmers and producers to sell agricultural products. Historically, part of creating a pleasant atmosphere for our space has been the inclusion of non-profit groups, musicians, street entertainers, and local performers.
“Busker” is an English term meaning street performer. There is a wide-ranging variety of Buskers that can participate at Houston Farmer’s Market. Performing with everything from puppets to violins, the Buskers serve to enrich the market’s already vibrant cultural community. New performers are always welcome at Houston Farmer’s Market.
