Stop by Nicollet xChange, a sustainable community marketplace in the heart of Minneapolis every Tuesday throughout the summer.

Nicollet xChange swap in the street.

UPDATE: This event has not returned for 2025.

Every Tuesday, come to Nicollet xChange, a fun event on Nicollet in the heart of Minneapolis. There will be food trucks, giveaways, vendors, entertainment, games, activities and a swap!

What is the swap? Basically you can bring any items you don’t want from your household and swap for other items! It’s a great way to reuse and recycle items you don’t need but still have more life in them.

Food trucks on Nicollet Mall.

Bring any high-quality item from work or home and receive a swap voucher for your item that can be exchanged for another item. Here are some ideas for what to bring: gently loved clothes, gifts you’ve never opened, books, puzzles, art, art supplies, plant cuttings- basically anything you would like to swap!

Nicollet xChange is every Tuesday throughout the summer from 11:30am – 1:30pm on Nicollet Mall from 8th Street and 9th Street.

    Your links to the Xchange and the Farmer’s Market are from 2021. Is there an updated one? I searched and couldn’t find anything? Thanks!
