This is a great open air market! Lots of quality artists are there. They are all very nice people. My niece, sister and I each bought several items. One vendor gave us a discount for buying multiple items. I really liked the variety of vendors there as well. It is open a lot later at night than I would expect for an outdoor fair which is a fun little treat!

This a beautiful night market with very interesting local artists on display. Very hip and unique art it is a nice break from clubbing and always upbeat as the customers invariably are a little tipsy and in a celebratory mood. I always like sticking my head in there and am drawn by the strings of lights. Fun always every time I pass through.

Theres a lot of really great artists there and they all sell some really unique stuff. Everyone I talked to was able to take both cash and card so I didnt have to worry about running out of cash and not being able to get anything I wanted. They have painting, jewelry, sculptures, etc. Everyone there was really nice too. Would definitely recommend stopping by if you have a chance.

Palace Market was a great experience! There was a great selection of vendors with a great selection of art from lamps made from books to layered epoxy flower frames. The atmosphere was really chill and I would recommend grabbing a drink from a nearby bar and taking your time to wander around.

Speculator Selection of different art forms. I settled on jewelry pieces from two different artist. I watched one artist create the beautiful jewelry items from zippers. Very orginal. Very well crafted.I bought a second piece from an artist that created jewelry from recycle guitar strings and various gems. All the artwork was superior in the market area.

My husband and I have enjoyed this market for years, and we finally got to bring our kids here last weekend. The vendors are always friendly, but they were especially sweet to our son who has developed an interested in rocks and gems. Every vendor selling jewelry stopped to show him various stones and gems. He was beyond excited when we left, and he is still talking about it days later.

Lots of variety from photography to painting to metalwork. Mostly the artists themselves behind the tables, I believe, and all super friendly. Plus you can hear the music from the bars around Frenchman street, so its got a great atmosphere. Only open in the evenings, highly recommend.

We had so much fun perusing the market! There was an assortment of jewelry, art, and all sorts of baubles.Our favorite thing here was the tintype photobooth. We really enjoyed talking to Jen and discussing the process of how the tintypes were made. We cannot wait to receive our tintype photo in the mail!

Fun market with local art treasures! Much better quality than art in Jackson Square. Love talking to the artists at each booth about their wares. We found some quality artwork to take home with us. Word of advice: if you see something you like, buy it. I hesitated on a t-shirt I liked, went back the next night, and that artist was no longer there.

Easy to find & fun to wander through. There was some lovely art and some interesting items that appeal to more eclectic tastes. I must admit some of the necklaces featuring small animal or bird skulls were fascinating rather than creepy. Something for everyone!

This is a tremendous little outdoor artist market. Multiple types of arts and crafts are available, and none of them are repackaged or mass produced. This is a great place to see and buy unique art, photos, clothing and more made by NOLA area artists.

We were looking for a place to sit, so we walked in to the market, which opens at 7pm. It is a pleasing place to watch and listen and buy. A nice gem in a whirl of music and sound.

If the hustle and bustle of late night fun on Frenchman Street has got you overwhelmed, take a minute to get cultured at the Palace Market on Frenchman. With a selection ranging from saxophones repurposed at lamps to art prints you cant really go wrong. All of the shop vendors are super nice and will engage you in conversation no matter your level of sobriety. Support local artists!

I love the atmosphere here at night. The lights, the artwork, jazz playing in the background... its not cheap though because you are looking at handcrafted works! I think a lot of prints and crafts I was looking at on average had a price tag of $50-$100. Some of the artists are real gems. If youre looking to have a good quality print to hang on your wall, this is good place to look. Usually, the artist is around to talk about their artwork too.

The night market is just the right combination of art, artists, music, hipsters, drunk tourists, and funky Frenchmen Street vibe. Stop in before or after a bite or show. Great brief nighttime activity for those too young to get into the many surrounding bars.

For tourists coming from out of town:It just another (yet very cute and pretty) artist market and it can be skipped.But if you want to look at some nice and interesting pieces of art and you are close by..Then this is a cute cozy one.I didnt like the fact that the rules in the entrance stated: No haggling

Also affectionately called the Midnight Market, youll find plenty of local goods, crafts and a touch of art in two sections. The place doesnt typically open until around 7pm and is open through midnight. Well worth the stroll if you need a break from being in the music clubs.

I wanted to buy everything.The artists represents quite a variety of genre wood, leather, jewellery. Postcards t-shirts, etc all very unique. I think its a great venue that adds flavor to the locale. Accompanied by street jazz music. Poets on the street. Artists and their trade. It was an intoxicating environment.

Make Frenchmen st your destination. You have to go after 7 pm, hop into d b a and the Spotted Cat, listen to the music permeating the air, and most definitely also spend some time here checking out the Palace Market! I wanted to purchase more than a few things but regrettably did not. Handmade, local artists representing themselves. This is very New Orleans.

While in NOLA on vacation, we stumbled upon this nightly streetside art festival/show and, uncharacteristically of us, walked out with some local art (from Spencer Epps, to give the artist credit where its due). This show adds a bit of relaxed local flavor to the already authentic Frenchmen Street music scene, and I recommend that you stop by when its open. Im not sure when the show starts, but all of the artists indicated that it ended at midnight, so you have plenty of time to pick something out!
