Brisbane's New Summer Night Market Is Coming to The Old Museum

If you equate summertime with browsing, eating and drinking, then prepare to make the Old Museum your Friday evening hangout. From November 13 to January 22, heading over to Bowen Hills is a must if you're keen on checking out their brand new Summer Night Markets.

In what might prove the city outskirts' answer to Hamilton's Eat Street, at least while the weather is at its warmest, a host of food trucks and stalls will descend upon the Old Museum's heritage gardens. Whether locally-grown produce, craft beer, Queensland wine, or just general artisan and maker goodies are on your shopping list, you'll find them here.

The first list of stallholders certainly ensures the question you should be asking yourself isn't "why should I go?" but "how can I miss it?" Bella BBQ, Brat Haus, Divine Doughnuts, Koma Sliders, Fire N Dough and more will be taking care of the food, Stone & Wood and Ravenscroft wines will be stocking the bar, and Backwoods Original, Antler and Moss, Lola Body and Gypsy Designs are among those offering up purchasable trinkets.

Plus, the Summer Night Markets aren't just about strolling and spending, with the event boasting wandering street performers as well as a stage dedicated to live music. On November 13, the entertainment lineup even includes a screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show for the extra cost of $18. Given how popular it is likely to be, we suggest rushing there faster than you can say "Dammit, Janet".

Head along to the Summer Night Markets at the Old Museum every Friday night — excluding Christmas day and New Year's Day — from November 13 to January 22. For more information, visit their website and Facebook page.
