Redcliffe Markets are a free Sunday waterfront market on Redcliffe Parade on the Redcliffe Peninsula. You can pick up farm-direct produce, seafood, fresh bread and handmade goods, with free parking close by.

They run every Sunday of the year, with an earlier start in summer and a rain, hail or shine policy, so a wet forecast does not cancel the day.

Redcliffe Markets days and hours

The markets are on every Sunday. Hours change with the season:

  • March to November: 8 am to 2 pm.
  • December to February: 7 am to 1 pm.

The markets trade rain, hail or shine. The organiser posts trading updates on social media, so check there if the weather looks rough.

What you’ll find at the Redcliffe Sunday markets

  • Farm-direct produce, including organic fruit and vegetables
  • Meats
  • Trawler-direct seafood
  • Fresh bread
  • Gourmet food and provisions
  • Artisan goods, handmade wares, arts and crafts

There is a live entertainment schedule too, and musicians and street performers can apply to perform through the organiser.

Getting to Redcliffe Markets

Redcliffe Parade is about 35 km by road from the Brisbane CBD, about 45 minutes by car. Bus stops near the markets are on Mall Way, at Bluewater Square and on Anzac Avenue. Use the Translink Journey Planner or call 13 12 30 for times and routes.

If you are on a bike, the organiser points to the Moreton Bay Cycleway, 11 km from Scarborough Beach to the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge (22 km return).

Make a morning of it at Redcliffe

The markets sit on the Redcliffe waterfront, so they pair easily with the rest of the peninsula. The Redcliffe Beach, Jetty and Lagoon guide covers the beach, jetty and lagoon, and Redcliffe Botanic Gardens has walks and a nursery if you want something quieter after the stalls.

Because the market opens early and finishes by 1 or 2 pm, the usual plan is to shop first, eat on the waterfront, then spend the afternoon on the beach or on the Moreton Bay Cycleway.

Selling or performing at Redcliffe Markets

The markets are run by Goodwill Projects, and applications go through its website. Musicians and street performers can apply to perform. The markets team can be reached on 0466 649 132 or at [email protected], and Goodwill Projects’ general line is 07 3309 7888.

Planning for the hours

Check the month before you set the alarm. From March to November the day runs 8 am to 2 pm, which is a relaxed late-morning visit. From December to February it starts at 7 am and ends at 1 pm, so you need to be there earlier to make the most of it, and it is the hotter part of the year.

The 12 December Christmas Twilight Market is a separate Saturday evening event, 4 pm to 9 pm, so do not confuse it with the regular Sunday hours.

Christmas Twilight Market

On Saturday 12 December 2026 the organiser holds a Redcliffe Christmas Twilight Market on Redcliffe Parade from 4 pm to 9 pm. It also trades rain, hail or shine.

Planning your visit

  • How long: an hour or two for a browse and breakfast or lunch by the water.
  • Cost: free entry and free parking; the stalls are extra.
  • Contact: 0466 649 132 or [email protected].

Details can change, so check the organiser’s website before you go.
