The Ascona Market takes place all day on every Tuesday from April to October along the lake promenade of Ascona.

There is a wide range of products offered on the numerous stalls and therefore everyone can find something which will suit their taste.

Also the local craftsmanship is well represented with handmade crafts for sale and in many cases items are made out of raw materials from the region such as wool products, wood craft or also home decorating items and accessories made from the famous Ticino granite, well known also in the architecture world and art history. There are of course also the food stalls offering varied products for sale and tasting on place: all kinds of sweets, vegetable pies as well as cheese and cold cuts tasting.

Further the market offers the visitor an ample choice of textiles and clothing, everything from shoes to hats.
