Please note that the Rosebank Sunday market will be closed on Sun, Dec 29, 2024 and Sun, Jan 5, 2025.
Set up in a spacious covered area of the rooftop parking lot, the Rosebank Sunday Market has long been one of the city's biggest and most popular, and the variety of traders is exceptional.
The market supports a wide range of talented artists working with myriad materials, from steel and beads to wood and paper, and if you are on the hunt for unique gifts, there's no better place to look. There are some fantastic clothing stalls selling fashion at prices that make you wonder why you even thought about going into the mall for clothes, as well as vintage clothing traders for those fans of thrift fashion.
Parents will be delighted to find a spacious kids' play area with face painting and a bouncy castle. Also make sure you check out the second-hand books, records and CD vendors, as well as antique traders and artisans. Don't miss the many delicious food stalls on offer, including cheese, fresh juice stands, organic fruit and vegetable stalls, and tasty street food. There's even a bar selling local craft beers and wines.
We also highly recommend supporting the Stand for Hope, where the market provides a stall to a local charity each week so that it can promote its cause.
Market regulars
DRESS FOR LESS MONTHLY SALEThere's a new creative, ecofriendly addition to the market: Dress for Less. "I found that there were so many people applying to sell preloved clothing at the market and the vintage sale was becoming flooded with clothing and accessories. I was turning them away," says Dana Druion, CEO of Rosebank Sunday Market. What changed her mind? The growing demand for affordable clothing. "With so many job losses in our country, people are turning to preloved items to make ends meet." You can now snag high-quality, preloved clothing and accessories at bargain prices on the first Sunday of every month. The next Dress for Less sale takes place on Sun, Jan 12, 2025.
TWICE-MONTHLY CAR BOOT SALE
Every week brings new treasures to the market, especially on the third and last Sundays of the month, which is when Rosebank hosts its famous car boot sale.

The next car boot sales take place on Sun, Dec 15, 2024 and Sun, Dec 22, 2024 alongside the regular market.
