The Night Market

Wednesday nights have never been more interesting. 

What am I talking about? Why the Queen Victoria Market of course! A social hub of activity, with food, drinks, music and stalls (stalls as far as the eye can see!).

The market runs every Wednesday night, from 5pm till about 10pm, from November till end of Feb. You need to get there early, because parking is a son of a b*tch, but well worth the hassle.

Now, let me tell you a bit about the market...

The Food:
As soon as you turn the corner into Queen street, you are hit with some of the most amazing smells you could imagine. Food from around the world, all under one roof! There are over 60 food stalls, serving goodies like Crab Burgers, Peking Duck, Afghan, Jamaican, Mamak’s famous roti, Macarons, Gelati1 and more.

The Drinks:
If you've ever walked around the Queen Vic Market, you will know it is a thirsty venture. There are so many stalls to see, you just keep walking, without realising how parched you are. Well fear no more, there are several bars, coffee houses and stalls offering drinks. 

The Stalls:
There are too many stalls to describe, I would be here for hours! But when we went, we were only there for a couple of hours, and we saw; an entire row of vintage stalls, hand made handbags, fisherman pants, paintings, make up, book signings etc. 

The Music:
They have local bands & musical acts playing on several stages around the market. 











I love the night market, and have now done most of my Christmas shopping. there are so many hidden gems, that you won't be able to find them all in one night. It just keeps drawing you back, week after week!

Love,

Jayde xx
