The Jubilee Hall, which houses the market, was built in 1904, and gained Grade 2 listed status in 1980. The restoration of the building began in 1985, driven by the former CEO Ray Green. The market was officially opened by the Queen in 1987. The Jubilee Market runs along Tavistock Street which itself was built in three sections and is named after the, then, landlord, the Duke of Bedford, Marquis of Tavistock. The Jubilee Market area is steeped in history with the novelist Thomas De Quincey lodging and writing here, goods used to be delivered on ponies direct from the docks to the loading bays which can still be seen, and the first mention of a Punch and Judy show in Britain was recorded, here, by diarist Samuel Pepys, who saw such a show in the square in May 1662.

Happy World Donkey Day from Jubilee Market Hall 🤗❤️


Long before Covent Garden became the bustling destination we know today, donkeys were a familiar sight in the market streets - helping traders transport fruit, vegetables, flowers, and goods through the narrow lanes of old London.

These hardworking animals played a quiet but important role in keeping Covent Garden moving, carrying produce to and from the original market since the 1600s. Today, they remain part of the area’s rich trading history and character.

Here’s to the little workers who helped build market life in Covent Garden 💛

Have you spotted JMH’s plaque dedicated to the 100,000 costermongers’ donkeys that worked in and around the market?

Drop a 🫏 below if you’ve seen it!

Admiral Russell commissioned the house which was built in 1716.

Pink Floyd and Fairport Convention played in the cellar whilst the grand entrance hall allegedly once “featured part of an ornately carved staircase that once belonged to Lord Russell’s flagship, Britannia”.

What do we think happened to the staircase? 🔍🕵️‍♂️

We’re still at the heart of one of London’s most iconic traditions 👑

The Pearly Kings and Queens of Covent Garden are part of a proud London heritage dating back to the late 1800s. Originally market traders and costermongers, they wore suits decorated with thousands of pearl buttons to raise money for charity - a tradition that continues to this day.

Covent Garden, with its long history as a trading and market district, became a natural home for the Pearly community. Their presence here celebrates heritage, generosity and community spirit- values that still shape JMH today.

Next time you visit, you might just meet a Covent Garden Pearly having a cuppa in 🧵🧺
