This longstanding outdoor marketplace is open every Saturday starting at 10am where vendors have been plying their wares from up to 250 stalls since the early 1970s.
Located on the grounds of the historic United Church on Oxford Street in Paddington, this lively market place bustles with activity. You can browse through 1000s of unique Australian made items that you won't see in the shopping malls while buskers entertain the crowd with their live music. Merchandise includes trendy fashions, jewellery, artwork, perfumes, hand made pottery, books, flowers, food, all kinds of knick-knacks and more.
You will find plenty of choices for eating at the Market with the option of sitting outside or in.

Paddington Markets Reviews

I visited Sydney 1st time for a week and I dedicated my Saturday for this market. However, the market wasn’t big as I expected and things were really expensive. It was a different experience but I regretted going there instead of doing something more interesting. I’m from Darwin and I find our markets (specially Mindil) here are lot more interesting.

small scale market focusing more on accessories and clothing. 1-2 stores selling fresh fish/meat. Walk from city is about 3km or you can take bus service 333

Lovely markets in the school grounds, selling vintage goods, homemade crafts, jams and preserves. Fresh fish, butchers and fruit and veg.
Great array of food stalls, from Mexican to french and Japanese....all the way to a snag on bread.
Something for everyone!!

The best Sydney korean kimbap shop is here!
The phrase “This is not sushi, this is kimbap” was also very funny.
That was amazing. It's cheap and so fresh so delicious
I want to go there every week👍
