In addition to the usual wide selection of stalls selling produce from 9am to mid-afternoon, you can pay a visit to the Brigg Live Arts Exhibition - supported by Brown & Co - in the Angel complex from 10am.
We are also hoping that the boat rides on the River Ancholme - re-introduced on the last farmers' market Saturday from the White Hart pub jetty - make a re-appearance.
There will be a Brigg Heritage Centre antiques fair in The Buttercross - above the Tourist Information Centre - from 9.30am to 1pm.
Attractive new public seating on the river towpath, close to the County Bridge and B&M store, will also be available to market shoppers wishing to rest their legs on Saturday.
We did a bit of digging in the archives about local boat trips and found an advert from 16 years ago which said people could discover "the hidden beauty of Brigg" through boat trips around the Island and special excursions to the Brandy Wharf Cider Centre.
The boat then ran seven days a week, weather permitting, during the warmer months, picking up passengers near Safeway's supermarket every 45 minutes and offering "bar service and music."
