From sunrise to early afternoon, dozens of vendors offer everything from organic produce and homegrown honey to handcrafted jewelry and vintage El Paso merch. Over on the Mission Trail, guided history tours and local food tastings are bringing crowds to Ysleta and Socorro. “It’s a beautiful way to rediscover El Paso,” said one visitor. The city has also launched the “April Nights” series, bringing live music and open-air movies to public parks every weekend throughout the month.
