Melbourne’s market icon
147 years of fresh produce, dairy favourites, handmade goods and lively seasonal events.
From its beginnings as Melbourne’s wholesale hub to today’s bustling marketplace, Queen Victoria Market has been part of the city’s story for over 147 years.
The Market is known for its mix of old-world charm and modern energy, drawing locals and visitors alike to shop, taste and explore. Its dairy offerings are a highlight: from artisan cheeses and creamy milk to fresh butter and hand-churned ice cream, there’s plenty to sample and take home.
Across its halls and laneways you’ll also find seasonal produce, deli staples, handmade goods, clothing and gifts. Beyond shopping, Queen Victoria Market hosts tours, tastings and cultural events that bring the precinct to life. On seasonal Wednesday nights, it transforms into a vibrant festival of global food, music and community.
A Melbourne icon and a place to experience the best of local flavour, Queen Victoria Market remains a must-visit destination for food, culture and connection.
