Overview
It's time to get festive beneath one of Newstead's most striking features: the Gasometer. For two nights in 2024 — one in November, one in December — The Market Folk is taking over the eye-catching Gasworks space, bring a heap of stalls with it and helping you finish your Christmas shopping (because, let's face it, no one ever gets 100-percent of their gift buying done too far in advance).
From 5–9pm on Saturday, November 30 and Saturday, December 14, the Gasworks Plaza precinct will be home to plenty of market stalls as the sun goes down, all brimming with items that'd make perfect presents (for your loved ones, and for yourself).
The Market Folk
If you're wondering just what kinds of things you can expect to pick up, think fashion, art, homewares, ceramics and vintage goods — and plants as well — from 40-plus businesses. There'll be a particular focus on Brisbane creatives, too. So, you'll also be gifting them some Christmas cheer by supporting their hard work.
These markets include live music on the lawn, plus bites and drinks from surrounding eateries and bars. And, they're also doggo-friendly.
On the November date, you can also catch a free outdoor Christmas movie.
