Pepper Fest

Pepper Fest

Can you handle the heat? 🔥
We are excited to announce Pepper Fest, a celebration of the versatile pepper! Taking place during our Thursday Night Market on September 18th, it’s going to be a night (shade) to remember!
🌶 Like them sweet? Come watch Ben Tilley of Crossroads Farm from 5pm-6pm for a lesson on peppers! Sample a wide variety of locally grown peppers and pepper value added products from our free tasting table all night long!
🌶 Like them spicy? Our hot pepper eating contest just might be the challenge for you! From 6-7PM, contestants will compete for a cash prize by eating 10 types of hot peppers in front of a live audience. Read more and enter to compete via the link in our bio, if you dare!
As always, the Jazz Station will be fanning the Night Market flames with a free live concert by neo-soul power pop group BendreTheGiant! Catch their hottest jams from 7-9PM 💃🕺
Beat the heat with another round of roller skating inside the Pavilion with Eugene Roller Village! Entry fees are $10, and skate rentals will be available.
Come skate, dance, taste, shop, and enjoy the night’s festivities from 5-9PM at the Farmers Market Pavilion, on September 18th. We can’t wait to see you there! 🔥🌶
