New for 2023! We were selected as one of Ithaca’s Best Wedding Venues by WeddingRule.com, calling us “a unique space for your special event.”

Read on to find out more about our beautiful setting, amenities, and how to book our pavilion and grounds for your own wedding…

Have your event at the Ithaca Farmers Market!

The pavilion is a charming, open-air structure situated on the Cayuga Lake Waterfront. Over the years we have hosted hundreds of weddings and special events for Ithacans and visitors alike. We’d love to be the destination for your event!

  • Review the calendar above to make sure your date is available. Dates labeled with a name or event name have already been reserved.
  • Review the 2023 IFM Rules & Regulations.
  • Visit our WeddingWire page to see photos and read reviews.
  • Contact the Events Coordinator vie email or fill out our online inquiry form and let us know of your interest. We’ll then reach out to schedule an informational call and talk about next steps!

If your event will be more than 150 people, consider renting our modern, clean restroom trailer! We already provide three regular bathrooms (one is ADA accessible) which is fine for most weddings, but if you would like to ensure super fast access to extra stalls for your guests, consider renting our restroom trailer for the evening. There is an additional $300 fee for the trailer for the night. It’s already on-site, stocked with paper goods and cleaned, and maintenance-free (with real flushing toilets and air conditioning!) On the application page you will be able to choose this amenity to add on. You can also wait and decide all the way until the week of your wedding to add it!

  • Music must be turned down by 11:00 pm and must be completely turned off by 11:30 pm.
  • All rentals and garbage must be taken off site at the end of an event. We do not offer garbage cans or dumpsters for events.
  • While the pavilion is covered, heavy rain and high winds can still affect your event.
  • Below: Placement of tables within the pavilion (please share with your caterer/event planning staff)
