Upcoming & Recent Pop-Ups

From neighbourhood corners to festivals, this is where you’ll find our upcoming and recent pop-ups.

Because we operate outdoors, our schedule is weather-dependent. For day-of updates and last-minute changes, Instagram is the best place to check.

Orchard Market

🗓 Sunday, May 17
📍 Junction Orchard & Cidery – 273 Prospect Lake Rd, Victoria, BC
🕰 12 PM – 6 PM

BOOKS + CIDER + COMMUNITY (A VERY GOOD COMBINATION)

We’re popping up at the Orchard Market this May.

Orchard Markets are inclusive, family- and pet-friendly days at the cidery (with free entry!) — bringing together some of your favourite local vendors, farmers, and makers for a relaxed Sunday hang. You can browse market booths, sip cider, grab bites from Bicycle Pizza and other local food vendors, and wander Orchard Lane to shop Junction’s resident small businesses.

And yes — we’ll be there with the book truck, fully stocked and ready for you to find your next great read.

FYI: if it’s rainy or misty, we may have to sit this one out (wet books = sad books). We’ll share any updates on Instagram the morning of to confirm.

Every Orchard Market brings something new, and we’re so happy to be part of this one. Come make an afternoon of it — bring your kids, bring your dog, bring a friend you owe a cider to.

See you there. 📚🍎
