Supper Market 2016
Spend your Friday nights snacking at the Convent.
Overview
The grounds of the historic Abbotsford Convent will be transformed into a bustling bazaar, when the Supper Market returns for 2016. This twilight market will run every Friday evening from January 8 to March 4, starting at 5pm. There'll be food, stalls and live music in the heritage gardens. Because it's too nice a time of year to spend Friday nights indoors.
Stalls at the market will have a local, handmade focus, selling jewellery, clothing and homeware products. The food, on the other hand, will have a more international bent, with Nepalese cuisine courtesy of Himalayan Sherpa, traditional Turkish snacks thanks to Mama's Gozleme, and Argentinean street food from the fine folks at Senor Churro, to name but a few.
The live music lineup, meanwhile, includes local future-pop shamans Rachel by the Stream, African dance company Asanti Dance Theatre, and self-professed acoustic-zyda-Jug-holy-billy-blues group The Duck Downpickers. Dancing, as you'd expect, will be highly encouraged.
