Let the vibrant Turkish Pazar Festival 2026 at the Queen Victoria Market take you on your

own journey to Türkiye on Saturday and Sunday 11 and 12 April between 9am and 4pm.

Enjoy this free, family-friendly celebration bursting with mouth-watering flavours, live music,

dance and rich cultural experiences. Indulge in favourites like gözleme, kebabs and balık

ekmek. There are vegan and vegetarian options and irresistible Turkish sweets. And no

Turkish day out is complete without a strong Turkish coffee and a piece of Turkish delight to

keep you going.

Chat with our friendly stall holders and discover beautiful Turkish arts and crafts. Don’t miss

the Australian Ottoman Mehter Band performing on Sunday. Free activities will keep the kids

entertained all weekend.

Queen Victoria Market is easily accessible by public transport, making it possible for

everyone to join the festivities. While there, explore the broader offerings of the Market and

enjoy everything this iconic Melbourne destination has to offer.

The Festival is held undercover in C & D Sheds (near Peel Street) at Queen Victoria Market.
