I was in Lisbon a few weeks ago which is home to the first Time Out Market that opened in 2014, as it all started there. Now there are Time Out Market food halls in many cities around the world. They have just announced the opening date for Time Out Market Vancouver that will be opening in Oakridge Park in the Spring of 2026.

They have just unveiled the first chefs and restaurateurs to join its culinary lineup.

Feenie’s by Chef Rob Feenie, Mee Bar by Chef Chanthy Yen, Lunch Lady, MaKaam by Baan Lao’s Chef Nutcha Phanthoupheng, DownLow Chicken, and Barnacle by Bar Bravo are the first six vendors announced.

Time Out Market will bring the best of the city together under one roof: a curated mix of the best chefs and restaurateurs, drinks and cultural experiences – showcasing top local talents in a casual, uniquely-designed space.

Across 50,000 sq ft, Time Out Market Vancouver will offer food from local award-winning and rising culinary talents as well as much-loved local gems across 18 kitchens, one dessert and one coffee counter – there will also be three bars, multiple event spaces, around 1,000 seats and a large outdoor terrace facing onto a public park.

Guests – whether they visit with family, friends or on their own – will get to enjoy a hugely diverse variety of food options while coming together around communal tables, surrounded by open kitchens with chefs in action. The Market will also host a vibrant, year-round cultural program alongside its curated food and drink offerings, providing an experience that will be both accessible and affordable.
