About Us
The St Kilda Beach Night Market is a locally
produced and independently run event that brings together a community of
artists, crafters, designers and buyers to create a unique series of
summer night markets. For ten Thursdays in summer, the
Night Market bursts onto the seaside village of St Kilda to transform O’Donnell Gardens into a luminous and effervescent town square.
With close to one hundred stall-holders, the St Kilda Beach Night Market creates a unique environment for
showcasing, selling and of course buying gorgeous things.
Why all the fuss?
The St Kilda Beach Night Market is a beautiful, vibrant and unique outdoor markets, attracting thousands of Melbournians
and tourists alike who enjoy its magical summer twilight atmosphere.
Located in between St Kilda’s famous Acland Street and Luna
Park, then tucked beneath the palms of O’Donnell Gardens, this distinctive
market transforms the rolling lawns into an exotic vibrant village. Shop, eat,
dance, relax, and play.
Snake your way along the paths and browse amongst the one
hundred handpicked stalls. Traders, designers and producers of fashion, home-wares,
arts, jewelry, produce and textiles; each selected on quality, diversity and
design.
Then, on the menu - delicious home-style cooking from the
kitchens of Argentina, India, Spain, Greece and Turkey, plus the best local and
organic producers and suppliers. Foodies go crazy.
Snatch a patch of grass under the palms, munch on your meal and
turn your ear to the beats: tiki exotica to bongo-rama. Sit if you can, twirl
fire if you can’t. Kids of all ages get involved in the grooves. Drum
workshops, salt air and the sunset.
Appearing on the first two Thursdays in December, the market
becomes the perfect setting for Christmas shopping – outdoors, vibrant, unique
and fun. Then weekly from the New Year until the end of February, come shop
till you drop, catch up with friends, eat till you burst, and enjoy a warm
summer’s evening in St Kilda.
The St Kilda Beach Night Market pumps with life,
music and people as the sunset’s and the stars come out to play. It’s St Kilda’s
edgy, contemporary and cool culture all rolled into one. Be a part of it.
