The Newtown Historic Association presents the Wayfare Pamphlet. It contains everything you need to know about Newtown Historic Market Day! Such as the day’s event schedule, artists attending, the eatery, family contests, colonial reenactments, what is happening at the Court Inn and much more. Please share with friends and family. We look forward to welcoming the community to a free celebration of all things Historically Newtown and the artists that make up our community.


Market Day is an annual Newtown tradition in its 47th year that takes place in the historic borough streets and is highly anticipated by our close community and surrounding Bucks County.

Market Day celebrates the colonial tradition of local farmers & homesteaders bringing their crops, livestock, and homemade wares into town to sell to neighbors & townspeople. It has transformed throughout the years to feature high-quality fine artists, crafters, food artisans & a farmer’s market.

Market day is family friendly, with colonial-era demonstrations, reenactments & activities. There will be two stage areas with live music, our annual puppet show and festival contests. There will be an eatery area with food from local restaurants, food trucks and artisan bites.

This event is organized by a team of dedicated volunteers and community members. All proceeds from Market Day support the Newtown Historic Association.
