About
The Squirrel Hill Night Market is a free, open-air street festival that takes over three blocks of Murray Avenue, from Forbes Avenue to Beacon Street, in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood. Presented by Uncover Squirrel Hill, I Made It! Market, and KeyBank, it fills the street with over 100 tents of independent artists and crafters, food trucks, offerings from neighborhood restaurants, live music and entertainment, and activities and crafts for kids. Markets run on selected Saturday evenings from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. during the warmer months, and the 2026 season is the 11th. Because the festival is held on the street itself, parking on Murray Avenue between Forbes and Beacon is prohibited on market days and buses are rerouted to Shady and Beacon. The organizers do not publish accessibility details, so contact Uncover Squirrel Hill at hello@uncoversquirrelhill.com with any access questions before you go.

Our Guidelines
1. Make Accessibility Info Easy to Find - Dedicated Website Accessibility Page

Clearly post detailed accessibility information online, covering parking, entrances, interior pathways, site plans, and more.


2. Include All Mobility Devices

Consider walkers, canes, crutches — not just wheelchairs. Provide specifics for a variety of mobility needs. Include people who use different devices in the conversation.

3. Go Beyond ADA Compliance

ADA is the minimum. Strive for real-world accessibility through thoughtful design and ongoing improvements.

4. Visibility = Accessibility

If disabled visitors aren't present, barriers may exist. Transparency and preparation are the keys to inclusion. Empower everyone to attend.
