The Riccarton Market Story
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.
What Our Stallholders Are Saying!
I have been a stall holder at the Riccarton Market since 2001. It has provided my sole income since then. As a passionate woodturner, the Market has given me an exposure and outlet for my products at an affordable rate that would have been difficult to achieve at other avenues. I have seen many great improvements over the years – from rough metal tracks to sealed pavements, much improved rest room facilities, better layout and greater health and safety considerations just to name a few.

Riccarton Market: I’ve had my Natural cosmetic stall here for over 25 years and consider it to be the best market in New Zealand. Ethically run by Rotary with great flair— it’s a fantastic launching pad for any small or Home based enterprise. I look forward to supporting the Riccarton Rotary market for many years to come.
