Redcliffe Markets Festival of Frights

Overview

Brisbane's busy market scene loves an occasion. Mother's Day markets, winter markets, Christmas in July markets, spring markets, festive markets — this city has seen them all, including in 2024, and will continue to do so. Accordingly, it should come as zero surprise that Halloween markets are also on the list. Redcliffe Markets Festival of Frights is one of them.

Only this spooky event will take you trick-or-treating by the Redcliffe jetty. Fancy an eerie theme and a killer waterside location? That's on offer from 4–9pm on Saturday, October 26.

Also on the bill: fireworks, a scavenger hunts, Halloween-appropriate decorations all over the place, and music and live entertainment to fit the mood — including roving pirate entertainers. And, a heap of food stalls serving up bites to eat, and drinks, also likely with a theme.

Entry is free, but you'll want your wallet for all that browsing and buying — there'll be more than 200 stalls to peruse.

And yes, dressing up is welcome for this wander along Redcliffe Parade till 9pm.
