The Nelson Market

The Nelson Saturday Market is a bustling hub of creativity, offering a wide array of artworks and locally produced goods. From handcrafted jewelry to fresh produce, the market caters to diverse tastes and interests. However, finding parking can be a challenge, as the popularity of the market leads to limited spaces and crowded streets. Despite the hustle and bustle, navigating through the throngs of people adds to the lively atmosphere. Overall, while the market may test your patience with parking and crowds, the abundance of choices and vibrant energy make it a worthwhile destination for a weekend outing.

Lovely local market. Great community spirit.

Amazing marketnNelson has the most amazing street markets in the countrynAwesome very country vibenTotally reccomend a visit on a saturday morning and the secondary market on sunday.

Great options for food produce and handmade gifts/foods.nReally good vibes.nMy husband got the hangi for $20 and I got the whitebait fritter for $16. Then we got some pastries for $6.50 each. A few other stalls had pastries for a bit more money.nNot enough seating for eating.

I had an absolute blast at the market this Saturday just passed. I bought a lot and would have bought more if I wasn’t flying home. Amazing apple selection at really cheap prices. Great artisan cheeses. Yummy breakfast options at reasonable prices. I even went home with some handcrafted items
