Melbourne loves markets. We have the Night Market, Noodle Market and now the Big Design Market that, as you might suspect, is both big and full of designer items. 'How big?' I hear you ask. Well there are over 200 designers from Australia and New Zealand including CycleStyle, Juke Cases, A Skulk of Foxes, Able and Game, Bailey Nelson and the surprisingly attractive concrete Pop Plant Plant Pots (try saying that fast).
When your arms can’t possibly carry any more designer goods it will be time to take a rest at one of the great food outlets setting up shop at the market. Miss Chu’s rice paper rolls always hit the spot, Beatbox Kitchen and Taco Truck will be showing you how it’s done and you can wash the inevitable feast down with a craft beer or cider from 2 Brothers Brewery.
Conveniently held just before Christmas this market will be great for snapping up those last minute gifts for your friends with a taste for designer goods or, if you’re like us, treating yourself to a present.
