Who We Are
The MAKRS Society brings people together through markets and festivals across the Triangle. Founded in 2020 by Max Rivera, we started with one pop-up market at North Hills. Today we run monthly Underground, Twilight and Foodie markets from Raleigh to Wendell, plus festivals like Bull City BOOs Fest, MAKRS Holiday Fest, Moore Square Winterfaire, Ma & Pa and Around the World, Raleigh.
When you come to our events, we want to immerse you in an all around experience that allows you to be present and connect with other people.
“I love this vibe, projection of positivity and encouragement!”
