JE T'AIME GEORGETOWN!
The Georgetown BID is hosting their 21st annual Georgetown French Market April 26 - 28, 2024. This popular open-air market - originally inspired by those often seen in France - will feature sidewalk sales and specials from more than 40 locally-owned boutiques, cafés, and galleries along Wisconsin Avenue from O St to Reservoir Rd., plus live music, stilt-walkers, face painting, a mime, and more. Neighborhood restaurants will also offer food and drink specials featuring French cuisine and beyond - from pastries, croissants, and macarons, to lunch items grilled outside, and wine discounts.
The 21st annual Georgetown French Market is sure to be magnifique!
