Riccarton Market is New Zealand’s largest outdoor market and a major Christchurch tourist attraction. Enjoy the great atmosphere, shop for bargains, relax over lunch with family and friends, while listening to music from local artists. The Market is open almost all year round! Entry, parking and entertainment is free. (*Excluding Easter Sunday - open Easter Monday.)
Riccarton Market has over 200 stalls and a wide variety of goods - from fresh fruit and vegetables, to second hand goods, furniture, clothing, art, plants and trees, food and beverages. You name it - the market will have it - including lots of bargains!
The Riccarton Sunday Market is the biggest outdoor market of its kind in New Zealand - it’s a great place to be a stall holder and do business. Join 200+ other stallholders and reap the benefit of having upwards of 10,000 potential clients every Sunday!
Beginning in 1989 as a car boot sale fundraiser for the Rotary Club of Riccarton, the Market has enabled the Rotary Club of Riccarton to put in over $3,000,000 back into the community. Equally as important, it makes an immense contribution to the commercial and business life of Christchurch.
