Ride Your Bike: 

Our venue at Railyard Park is located next to the Santa Fe Rail Trail, an extensive 15-mile bike trail that ends right at the Santa Fe Depot Station. Each year, we partner with Bike Santa Fe to offer a complimentary volunteer-run Bike Valet service to Marketgoers and volunteers. Once you get to Market, you can check your bike in at our Bike Valet tent. This year, Bike Valet will be open during the following times:

NOTE: City parking rates vary. IFAM does not validate parking. When parking in private lots, please look for parking attendants. Please adhere to City rules and respect the surrounding neighborhoods.
