The White Hat Guide to Night Markets & Twilight Markets in Melbourne & Victoria

White Hat - THE place to find markets in Victoria

Over the years White Hat has become recognised as THE place to list and find markets in Melbourne & Victoria and our markets pages consistently receive over 1,000 visitors a day with over 3,000 a day at weekends. Unlike many websites which merely LIST markets, White Hat VISITS markets as witnessed by the photographs. Although we visit hundreds of markets every year we can never cover all of them so please let us know if any of our information is out of date. With details on over 400 markets, users regularly tell us that the White Hat listing is the best and most comprehensive source of markets in Victoria available either on the web or in print.

During the summer months you can find night markets and twilight markets around Melbourne and Victoria. Possibly the best known are the Gaslight Markets at the Victoria Market and the St Kilda Beach Market. However beachside towns often delay their summer markets to the cool of the evening. Below is a selection of these markets.

St Kilda Beach Night Market
