Celebrating Brisbane's small businesses and local creatives — giving them a northside home to sell their wares, too — VEND at Virginia wants you to stop by whenever you can to peruse and purchase from the 130-plus stalls and shops based in its space. Sometimes, however, it throws in a little extra incentive. If you can't get enough cakes, doughnuts and ice cream, a day-long dessert market certainly counts.
At The Sweet Escape, indulging your sweet tooth over cocktails is on the menu. A heap of stalls and food trucks are popping up to dish up their dessert best — and yes, you can have exactly that for breakfast if you like.
After a few weather delays raining on its sugary parade, the market will take place from 8am–4pm on Saturday, April 22. Entry is free, but reserving a spot online in advance is recommended.
For kids, there'll be face painting and other activities — and VEND is pet-friendly, so bringing your doggo along is not just allowed but encouraged.
