Overview
Sometimes it's just too much effort to get up and go to the markets. Who wants to get up at the crack of dawn on a Sunday to look at the same stuff? It's far too early to fully comprehend all the bargains on offer anyway. Thank the stars though that we now have the BrisStyle indie twilight markets. Markets at night? What a simple but oh so clever idea.
For those of you out of the loop, etsy.com is the online crux of handmade knick-knacks and BrisStyle is the site's on the ground team, promoting the local independent art, craft, and design featured on the website. At the twilight markets, the team aims to offer an organic lantern-lit experience that combines the buzz of the CBD with our laid back south-east Queensland nature. Over 60 emerging and established locals have their wares on display; all handmade and one-of-a-kind. There is also a cafe, restaurant, and bar on site – does your local early morning market have that?
So it's settled then. You're going to get down to King George Square and support your community aren't you? You'll feel good about it and you'll get to shop under the stars too (and not because it's 4am!).
