Running from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM, the seasonal market will bring together over 150 specialty stalls, transforming the riverside park into a buzzing hub of gourmet eats, artisan goods, and lively entertainment, all under the glow of the spring night sky.
From sizzling street eats to handmade treasures, the market is set to be a feast for all the senses. Food lovers can indulge in a global selection of dishes. Think smoky barbecue, fragrant curries, sweet pastries and more, while browsers can meander through stalls offering locally made art, crafts, and boutique products.
The event is more than just a market; it’s a celebration of West End’s creative energy and community spirit. Visitors can expect live music throughout the evening, with performances from local musicians and energetic roving acts creating a festival-style atmosphere. A pop-up bar will serve drinks for those keen to relax and soak up the vibes, while kids’ activities and family-friendly entertainment will keep younger visitors smiling.
Organisers from Goodwill Projects say the Spring Solstice Market will capture the essence of the changing season — fresh, fun, and full of colour. Entry is free, but those who register for tickets will go into the draw to win a Gourmet Market Hamper, packed with goodies from the night’s stallholders.
