Just when you thought the Queen Victoria Market couldn’t possibly squeeze in another nocturnal market, they do — the Europa Night Market is back. If you're longing to go back to the breezy days of Euro summer, this is the antidote for your ennui. From September 27 to October 25, the marketplace will transform into a bustling after-hours bazaar that salutes Europe and its diverse (and delicious) food and drink traditions.
Across the five-week season, every Wednesday visitors can feast on authentic street food and drinks from a variety of traders, shop from local stalls and enjoy a weekly line-up of live music as well as cultural performances.
Each week will be dedicated to a different part of the expansive continent, kicking off with Italy before moving on to the Bavarian region of Germany, then provincial France, the Iberian Peninsula, and last but not least, the Mediterranean. On the menu, you can expect to taste everything from tasty panzerotti, Portuguese Churrasqueira, French crepes and of course, plenty of spritzes.
The Europe Night Market will run every Wednesday between 5pm and 10pm and entry is free.
