Burlington Outlet Village - Burlington, NC - Outlet Stores and Sunday Farmers' Market

Located just off of Interstate 85 and Interstate 40, the Burlington Outlet Village (BOV) is an outlet shopping center. It was actually the first factory outlet center to open in North Carolina. Formerly known as Burlington Manufacturers Outlet Center, Burlington Outlet Village is located at 2389 Corporation Parkway in Burlington, North Carolina.

The outlet village actually consists of several buildings. The main section of the property was constructed in 1981. In 1983, additional buildings were constructed. In 2007 and 2008, the village was renovated. The renovations included new store fronts, lighting, a new logo, a new name, rebranding, parking lots, signage, and landscaping. The goal of the renovations was to revitalize the area.

Burlington Outlet Village classifies its stores into five main categories. These categories are Children, Home, Men, Shoes, and Women. The outlet village features a wide variety of the top name brands, including: Allen Edmonds, Bass, Carter's Children's Wear, IZOD, Jockey, Nine West, Pepperidge Farm, and Van Heusen.

The outlet village also features Senior Day. Senior Day occurs every Tuesday and allows seniors to save 10% off of their entire purchase at select stores. With valid photo ID, seniors can save on Tuesdays at: Bass, Dressbarn, Designer Home, Hanes Mill Outlet, IZOD (purchase of $50+), Jockey, Kitchen Collection, Pepperidge Farm, and Van Heusen.

Regular hours for the outlet village are Monday through Saturday from 10:00am-7:00pm and 1:00pm-6:00pm on Sunday.

Burlington Outlet Village is also home to the Burlington Farmers' Market. Located next to Designer Home Warehouse, the farmers' market is open from 1:00pm-5:00pm every Sunday through October. The farmers' market normally opens for the season in April. The farmers' market offers local beef, local pork, local poultry, farm-fresh eggs, cheeses, baked goods, homemade preserves, seasonal fruits and vegetables, relishes, pickles, and even local honey. In addition to the variety of foods, the market also features artisans and craftspeople who sell handmade items. Each week, a different nonprofit organization or group provides activities for children and live music.

Burlington Outlet Village features an annual Christmas Market, which is typically open between November and December. Dates for the Christmas Market may vary. Each year, vendors for the Christmas Market are selected from a pool of applicants. Vendors are selected based on their merchandise quality, their product diversity, and their products' ability to complement the Christmas Market theme. Artisans and vendors are encouraged to use booth space (if space permits) to demonstrate how their products are created so that interested shoppers can watch them sew, weave, paint, etc.

Shoppers can join the BOV VIP Club. Members receive e-mails for member-only discounts and events, early notification of sales, and exclusive deals at partner venues.

The village hosts several local and seasonal events throughout the year. Past and planned events include charity events, sidewalk sales, antique automobile shows, arts and crafts shows, and promotional events. Burlington Outlet Village is also home to yard sales and pet adoption events.
