Why it's worth checking out

The Meat Market sits on Blackwood Street in North Melbourne, just north of the CBD. A beautiful heritage venue — housed in a grand former meat market building — it's a much-loved events and arts space, hosting markets, exhibitions, performances, fairs and events of all kinds in its striking, characterful interior.

The appeal is that combination of a stunning heritage setting and a varied, ever-changing program: from craft and design markets to art shows, performances and special events, there's always something different on, all within the gorgeous, atmospheric old market building. It's a distinctive, characterful venue that's become a genuine cultural fixture in the inner north.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 700 reviews, it's clearly valued by its visitors. The events, markets, exhibitions, opening hours and access all vary entirely with what's on, so it's worth checking the current program before you go — particularly for a specific market or event — while looking forward to whatever's happening in the beautiful heritage Meat Market in North Melbourne.
