About Dundas Place

Dundas Place is a destination for shopping, dining, art, and celebration located in the downtown area of London, Ontario, along Dundas Street. Serving as a hub for artists, festivals, and unique businesses, it functions as a flexible street shared by pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. The area features extra wide sidewalks and no curbs, allowing parking spaces to be used for sidewalk sales, street performers, or transformed into patios. The destination is divided into several specific locations, including the Event Block, Fanshawe Block, Market Lane, Marquee Block, and Library Block. It offers a variety of experiences such as concerts, pop-up markets, cultural events, food and art festivals, and programming. For performers, the Linden Stage in Market Lane Park provides a public space for pop-up performances. Dundas Place is designed to be a vibrant core for the city, offering a space where the street can be closed to vehicles for special events. Practical amenities include bike racks and a 20 kilometre per hour speed limit to support shared use. Parking on the street is free from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Saturday, with a one-hour time limit, and is unrestricted and free during the evenings, on Sundays, and holidays.
