NEW MARKET LAYOUT


In March we changed the Market Layout and Traffic Flow.


The MDC has requested that we not have traffic crossing the Park, so we have reverted back to the single exit and entry off Alabama Road. You can park south of the Sheep Shearing Shed as you enter, and walk in entry past the Information Stall. with the Market Arena now north in a rectangular format.


The easiest walk in is through the Maxwell Road gates. 


As each week passes the layout continues to work more smoothly and we hope this, with the positive feedback we have been getting, continues.


Drivers, please keep to a slow pace and watch out for children in particular, as you navigate in and out. Our feedback since the change has been very positive. Thank you. 


We are working hard on making the market a convivial and inclusive experience for all.


We trust that you will continue to enjoy the ambience of our new layout and great market. Thank you.


See you every Sunday between 9 and noon.

Information Stall


Our information stall is located to the Maxwell Road end of the Sheep pen building opposite the Sheep Shearing Shed in the middle of the Market. Our staff are available to help with any Market queries and can often assist with other information about Marlborough too. The Information Stall runs a cash-out EFTPOS system from NZ Bank accounts, if you need some cash (not all stallholders have EFTPOS facilities available).


Unfortunately we do not have the capability to process Credit, Travel or International Card transactions.


We also sell a range of locally produced products on behalf of the producers.
