The popular Collective Markets at Southbank are now open Friday nights, Saturday and Sunday every weekend!
Embracing artisan culture, the market is a haven of unique goods – from eclectic and effortlessly cool fashions, to handmade jewellery, art and stylish homewares. With more than 100 stalls and shops by local creatives, these markets are a must for any enthusiast.
A fantastic array of quality items
Set in a large expansive area, the markets are always busy but never crowded. Wander the walkways of stallholders and you'll find an eclectic mix of fashion, homewares, crafts, jewellery, collectibles, photography works, vintage wares and naturopathic goods.
This market is a little different from others as there is a strong emphasis on high quality goods whilst still keeping to those great bargain prices you expect from a market. There's nothing quite like discovering something that has been handmade and has a beautiful story attached to it. By shopping at The Collective Markets, not only will you discover such treasures, but you'll also be showing your support for local creative entrepreneurs, emerging designers and vintage collectors.
