Life Forest Midnight Market
Life Forest Midnight Market
The Life Forest Midnight Market comes to The Bower in Bethlehem, New Hampshire on Friday, September 25 and Saturday, September 26, 2026, a free community celebration of arts, crafts, music, and nature in a 900-acre conservation forest. Set in a scenic clearing at the trailhead of The Bower’s certified ecotherapy trail system, this moonlit festival runs both evenings from 6 pm to midnight during a full moon weekend at the peak of North Country autumn foliage, one of the most popular times of year to visit the White Mountains.
Guests can explore a pop-up market of local artists and makers from across the North Country and greater New England, enjoy live music and a campfire, and join guided moonlit walks along the forest ecotherapy trail loop. The event is free, and registration includes a spot on the free guest shuttle. Attendees are encouraged to RSVP early and can visit the Midnight Market Guest Portal to view the vendor, musician, and activity lineup and plan their visit. Local artists and makers are welcome to apply for limited vendor booth space.
Getting There
All guests arrive by complimentary shuttle. Please park at Bethlehem Elementary School, 2297 Main Street, Bethlehem, NH 03574, where the free guest shuttle will run to and from the venue throughout the evening. There is no guest parking at The Bower, and the venue is reached by a private single-lane driveway that cannot accommodate event traffic, so please do not drive directly to the forest. Shuttle seating is included with your event registration.
Presented in partnership with Life Forest, the Midnight Market marks its fifth year and its first at The Bower, a working forest landscape managed by North Country Land Stewards LLC and protected in perpetuity through conservation easements held by the New England Forestry Foundation.
