Monthly markets at Port Street, Stirling, FK8 2DL
Stirling Farmers’ Market is held in the Port Street pedestrian precinct, between Albert Place and Murray Place (just above the marker on the map) and outside M&S and the Thistles Shopping Centre.
It’s a short walk from both the bus and railway stations to the market and there are plenty of bike racks in the vicinity of Port Street if you fancy cycling along.
If arriving by car you’ll find multi-storey car parks attached to the Thistle centre and at Wellgreen Place, good car-parking along Dumbarton Rd and also in the Kings Park area if you are early enough. At the weekends you can also park for free at the Council offices at Old Viewforth and Stirling has various Park and Ride services too – see link below for details:

Focus on sustainability – tree planting, promotion of no single use plastics: reduce, reuse and recycle.
We have established a tree grove with Trees for Life UK.
A tree will be planted for each market we run in order to address our impact and that of our stallholders on the carbon footprint associated with our markets.
Trees For Life UK will plant a tree from a healthy range of native species to contribute to the health and biodiversity of forests which will be rich in wildlife and protected for future generations.
Currently, Trees for Life UK are planting trees in the Scottish Highlands with ones contributed through corporate groves being planted in Glen Affric where they have been rewilding for over 25 years.
