Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day

A box of chocolates, a freshly picked rose.
One bottle of wine and necklace she chose.
Finish the day with dinner for two,
South Melbourne Market much more than you knew.

Indulge your loved one this Valentine's Day with treats from
South Melbourne Market.
Eat Local
Eat Local

When we sit down to eat, it’s often surprising how little we know about what is on our plate. Each ingredient has typically travelled over 1000 kms, and when we add up the contents of a typical shopping basket, the food miles are equivalent to travelling nearly twice around the Earth.

At South Melbourne Market, we are all for locally grown and produced food because it is better tasting, better for the environment, better for local economies and better for your health. Eat Local and make your impact on the earth small, and very delicious.
Lunar New Year
Lunar New Year

Celebrate the Year of the Tiger at South Melbourne Market complete with dragons, firecrackers and a laughing Buddha. Join us as we light firecrackers to chase away evil spirits and dance with the Golden dragon to bring good luck and fortune to all. And while you are here, why not enjoy some traditional and contemporary Chinese food at Linx BBQ and Yum Cha (Cecil St).

When: Saturday 13 February – from 11am

Cost: Free
