EDGEMEAD CHRISTMAS MARKET

Established in 2001, this is one of the most well-known Christmas Markets in Cape Town. This is a highly anticipated community based market that takes place at the Edgemead Community Centre. The market is setup inside the main hall of the community centre, and we also plan to create additional trading space by putting up marquees in one of the adjacent parking lots. This market is visible from Edgemead Drive which is one of the main roads that run through the suburb. It is also centrally located with the suburbs of Plattekloof, Welgelegen, Panorama and Monte Vista on one side and Bothasig, Burgundy Estate, Richwood, Table View and Milnerton on the other.

CAPE GATE FESTIVE MARKET

This is a NEW and very large Christmas Market that will be taking place at Cape Gate Shopping Centre in Brackenfell, Cape Town. The market will be setup inside marquees that will be positioned between two of the busiest free parking entrances to the mall with the entrance to Checkers on one side and Dischem / Woolworths on the other. This market will also be visible from the very high traffic Okavango Main Road (M137). As this is a new and very large market, it will receive an advertising budget even larger than the Edgemead Christmas Market. Part of this advertising budget will be sponsored by Cape Gate Shopping Centre.

The video below shows the trading location for the NEW Cape Gate Festive Market.

TYGER VALLEY FESTIVE MARKET

This is a smaller, but beautifully decorated market located inside Tyger Valley Shopping Centre in Bellville, Cape Town. This market will take place in the mall’s central arena on the lower level of the food court and will be visible from the seating areas of the restaurants on all 3 levels above. As this is a fairly small market (about 180 exhibitors), it will not be highly advertised outside of the mall, however it will benefit from the 10’s of thousands of people that pass through the mall looking for Christmas gifts over the festive season. The majority of sales at this market are generated from around 16 to 24 December. If the mall does not need the market space for any other events, we will try to extend trading at this location further into the new year.
