The vibrant
South Bank Lifestyle Market is Brisbane’s only three day market with a kick off on Friday night before winding down to a more casual occasion on Saturday and Sunday.
According to the website, stalls are always changing and updating their materials to keep up with an:
"exciting range of arts, craft, homewares, collectibles, exotic items, designer fashion and much more. The markets are an ideal way to find a unique gift, or simply stroll through and enjoy the atmosphere."
The
Stanley Street Plaza really comes alive on Friday, it’s a great place to meet up with friends with nearby bars, pubs, cafes, restaurants and
cinemas open all around the market, not to mention the parks and riverside view of the glowing city.
Even if you’re strapped for cash, this market has a great atmosphere no matter what day or time you attend.
Getting to the markets is easy,
Translink has a range of buses and ferries from all around Brisbane going directly to South Bank. For those out of town, the trains can deliver them straight to the market at South Bank Station.
For those coming from the CBD, Stanley Street Plaza is only stone’s throw over the Brisbane River, just use the
