'Bourne Local Collingwood Artisan Market
Hit this monthly market for fashion, produce, food trucks, tunes — and a roller rink disco.
Overview
Thanks to the expert curators behind 'Bourne Local, you've now got another top-notch artisan market to put on rotation. On the last Sunday of each month, the crew takes over a former car showroom on Hoddle Street to host its latest offering — the 'Bourne Local Collingwood Artisan Market.
Running 11am–4.30pm, each instalment is brimming with locally-made fashion, homewares, crafts and produce, and backed by a range of seasonal delights. While you shop, you can tuck into bites from the day's food truck rotation (maybe vegan Mexican eats by Cha Chas), and soak up live sounds from a lineup of local artists. Unlike other markets, however, this one also features a roller rink disco and table tennis hall, for a spot of extra entertainment.
For its September 25 edition, you'll also catch a BMX and car display put together by Street Car Culture, and a pop-up barbershop from the hair legends at Kings Domain Academy. More goodies are in store for the rest of the series, happening on October 30 and November 27, with a special twilight market following on December 11 (3–9pm).
Entry to the markets is free, though you can reserve a spot online.
