Maroochydore Moonlight Markets

When the sun goes down over the Sunshine Coast's newest city centre, the Maroochydore Moonlight Markets spring to life at The MET - a purpose-built outdoor event space right at the heart of Maroochydore City Centre. Running on the third Saturday of each month from the late afternoon into the evening, the market has quickly earned a reputation as the Sunshine Coast's best food truck lineup, drawing regulars and visitors alike for gourmet street eats, artisan stalls and ice-cold drinks from the City Lights Bar. Presented by Sunshine Coast Music and Events - the region's largest community event operator - this is a night market with real polish: free live music fills the air, fairy lights and a fairytale atmosphere encourage people to linger, and free kids activities including face painting mean the whole family has a reason to come along. Browse handcrafted treasures from local makers, catch up with mates over a craft beer or cocktail, and soak up the buzz of a city centre that's still finding its stride.
