4 fantastic Jo’burg markets

Visiting local markets is a great way of spending free time, plus you get to experience the best of Jo’burg food. Art Director Hema Nana visits four of her favourites

Neighbourgoods market
Johannesburg has its very own version of the original (and popular) Cape Town market and it’s open every Saturday from 9h00 – come rain or shine. The market covers two floors and you can expect lots of craft beer, seasonal fruit and veggies and meat from Braeside Butchery.

*Top Tip: Go early, it gets busy and make a stop on the large rooftop area to take in the beautiful view.

Arts on Main is open every Sunday from 10h00-15h00 and the night market is open the first Thursday of every month from 19h00-23h00. I’m super excited about the new Arts on Main spin-off market opening in Pretoria later this year.
