Fur Babies Welcome
At the St Kilda Esplanade Market, we believe that a day out is always better with your furry companions by your side. That's why we're proud to be one of the only pet-friendly craft markets in Melbourne, where your fur babies are not just welcome – they’re part of the family!

Every Sunday, our market comes alive with the presence of the most adorable pups, from tiny ones exploring their first market adventure to seasoned market-goers who have made it their weekend tradition. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a laid-back senior, we invite them to join in the fun, as long as they’re on a leash.

Our market is the perfect place to enjoy a leisurely stroll with your pet, browse unique handmade goods, and soak up the vibrant atmosphere together. Bring your fur babies, share a moment of joy with fellow pet lovers, and discover one-of-a-kind crafts from talented local artisans.

See you and your furry friends at the market soon!

Coming up on 9 August
Witness the dynamic rhythms and rich cultural heritage of Gimin Taiko, a traditional Japanese drumming performance presented by the Gimin Taiko Preservation Society from Aoki Village in Nagano Prefecture, Japan.

More than a musical performance, Gimin Taiko tells the story of the brave farmers of Aoki Village who, during Japan's Edo period, stood up against feudal oppression to protect their community. Their courage, determination and unity are brought to life through the powerful beats of wadaiko (Japanese drums), traditional chants and dramatic storytelling.

Performed by both adults and children, the presentation reenacts the villagers' historic struggle for justice, symbolising perseverance, sacrifice and the strength of community spirit. This moving cultural performance offers a unique opportunity to experience an important piece of Japanese history and tradition.

Performances are located at the Clock Tower:
11am session
1pm session
