open air market

Outdoor shopping venue

An open air market is a marketplace where vendors sell goods outdoors, typically from stalls, tables, or temporary structures rather than enclosed shops.

These markets often specialize in fresh produce, crafts, or local goods: We bought vegetables at the open air market.

The term emphasizes the outdoor setting, distinguishing it from indoor shopping venues.

Also spelled open-air market.
