The Old Town Market Hall, Old Town’s newest event venue, is ideal for hosting parties, wedding receptions, meetings, reunions, concerts, art shows, and more.

The Old Town Market Hall is a 3,100 sq. ft. space with a 24-ft. high redwood ceiling, a skylight, brick walls, bow-truss beams, and oversized doors to allow events to spill outside.
