Today is the day we have all been waiting for – the GRAND OPENING of Highside Market, and we are so excited to celebrate with you! It has been an incredible journey watching this development come together. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to every individual who played a part in this process and the wonderful Columbus community for their unwavering support. Highside Market has come a long way over the past few years since construction started and it has completely transformed into a remarkable space. Highside Market has become exactly how we envisioned it would be: a place for all, made by all.

This is just the beginning of a very bright future for Highside Market, and we cannot wait to see what lies ahead. Join us tonight to commemorate this milestone tonight at the GRAND OPENING HOLIDAY BAZAAR from 4-7PM! ✨
