New Zealand’s largest street market, up to 5,000 people visit this Saturday morning market each week, and business is well underway by 6am. Pacific Island, Maori, Asian and Pakeha stallholders gather each week, creating a uniquely New Zealand multicultural experience. As you meander around the 250 plus stalls, Pacific Island music plays loudly, while the thick scent of Cook Island donuts, hot rewana bread, and Chinese pork buns hangs in the air. Whether you’re after fresh fruit and vegetables, unique clothing, jewellery or Pacific Island crafts, the Otara Market is a penny pincher’s dream. Access is from the East Tamaki off-ramp, about 20 kilometres south of central Auckland on the Southern Motorway.

Avondale Markets is held every Sunday 6.00am to 12noon. Strong Polynesian and Asian influence with a multitude of stalls, arts and crafts, new and used products and produce, clothes and general bric-a-brac. A great day out in a multicultural atmosphere.

Hip new designer fashion, contemporary jewellery, Pasifika arts and crafts, ethnic food and local entertainers – Aotea Square Market brings talent, soul and excitement to Auckland's favourite open-air square in the CBD.

With something for everyone Aotea Square Market is a great place to shop or simply enjoy the atmosphere! It's Auckland culture at its best and definitely worth a visit!
