Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets

Positioned along the famous Surfers Paradise Esplanade and against the incomparable backdrop of the Pacific Ocean’s rolling surf and pristine white sands, the Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets are an iconic shopping and cultural experience.

Still one of the largest Gold Coast night markets to this day, and the bonafide original, the Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets have grown from strength to strength since its inception in 1995. Featuring a variety of premium products, including fashion, jewellery, accessories, artworks, photographs, beauty products, homewares and pre-packaged sweets, these markets are quite simply, not to be missed.

Every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 4pm-9pm, treasure hunters, bargain spotters and after-dinner walkers make their way to the Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets to wander along the coastal stretch with over 100 market stalls. Enjoy the cool caress of ocean breeze and the sounds of waves crashing upon the sand, while live entertainers perform under a moonlit sky, further adding to the magical atmosphere. Featuring artisan and iconic Australian goods, fresh produce (in season), gourmet provisions, handmade wares and SO much more. A market dedicated to supporting and showcasing the best growers, makers, characters and creators locally and from afar.

If you’re looking for an unusual gift or one-off piece, the beachfront Night Markets are your one-stop-shop, with friendly stallholders always on hand to chat about the ‘how’, ‘what’ and ‘why’ of their wares.

Only steps from the renowned Surfers Paradise Beach, Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets boasts ample street parking, waterfront access, free entry and a bustling entertainment schedule.
