About this market
Running since 2015, Moonlight Market transforms Hargreaves Mall - right in the heart of Bendigo - into a lively village atmosphere on selected Saturday evenings throughout the warmer months. The mall comes alive with a food truck park, a licensed bar, live music and art installations, street performers, a children's playground, and a curated mix of stalls from artists, vintage traders, handmade designers, and food producers. It is a boutique event with a genuine selection process, ensuring each stall offers something distinct and eye-catching rather than mass-produced goods. Whether you are browsing for original local wares, grazing across specialty food trucks, or simply settling in with a drink to watch the entertainment, Moonlight Market offers a free, relaxed night out for families and friends alike.
The 2026/27 season runs on selected Saturday nights from July 2026 through May 2027, typically 3 pm - 8 pm, with special daytime editions for the Grand Final Eve Friday market and the Easter Edition (10 am - 4 pm).
