Mercado on Fifth serves as a platform and resource for minority entrepreneurs and inspires Hispanic cultural pride for the Quad Cities area.
We have made it to our 7th season and have helped to start over 60 new businesses thanks to your community donations.
This year, as you consider a gift for Mercado on Fifth, remember that it is a participating organization with Birdies for Charity.
Thanks to the Birdies for Charity bonus fund, every donation will be matched by at least 7%!
With Opening Day being one week away, we would like to kick-off the season with asking for your support - whether it be donating $25 or $100.
Your gift will go toward our small business support, top-notch Latin music lineup, Mercado Plaza maintenance and free kids’ activities every Friday.

Mercado on Fifth is an outdoor event from 5-10 p.m. every Friday on 5th Ave. between 11th and 12th streets in Moline. The weekly gathering features food trucks, produce/retail vendors, live entertainment and activities for children. Mercado’s 2023 summer season will run every Friday night from May 26 – Sept. 29. Mercado aims to attract more people to the Floreciente neighborhood and increase community involvement and pride by offering economic opportunities to small and minority-owned businesses. Patrons can enjoy cultural entertainment from area musicians, dance groups and artists. The market also provides learning opportunities for children and information about local nonprofits for adults.
