George Street Market

An exciting new event is set to transform the beautifully redeveloped central city into a vibrant and buzzing bazaar.

Retailers, stallholders, eateries, food trucks, artisans and performers will come together for the inaugural George Street Market on 8 February 2025.

This new event is the next evolution of the popular Thieves Alley Market, which took place in The Octagon and surrounding streets.

The George Street Market will be held instead, utilising the fabulous, redeveloped George Street area for Dunedin’s new premier street market event.

Part of the street will become pedestrian-only, so attendees can shop and peruse the stalls and stores throughout the day at their leisure.

Adding to the excitement is a slew of international circus performers bringing their unique talents to the market.

When: 8 February 2025
Time: 10am - 4pm
Where: George Street, Central Dunedin between Moray Place and Frederick Street
Entry: Free
