Prahran Market will be the only Melbourne Food Market open Monday 22nd December.
The option to trade for seven days in the lead up to Christmas got the majority vote when Market Traders were polled on the preferred festive season hours back in September. The seven-day shopping streak will mean Prahran Market is the only Melbourne Food Market open on Monday 22nd.
“Locals pack up the car and travel for Christmas, some just want to get organised. Being open on Monday 22nd means we give more options for customers who want the premium and fresh produce that Prahran Market delivers, but without the pressure of a Christmas Eve shop.” – Noel, CEO.
Christmas seafood shopping is also made easier with two new fishmongers, now for a total of four. Fatbuoy Lobster, from Con and Daimien opened its doors in November, and Portside, from Stephen Nairn (Yugen Dining), are the newest additions to Prahran Market’s already impressive seafood category (Claringbold’s and Prahran Seafood). Plus, even more new stores are set to launch before the end of the year.
Trading from 5am on both Tuesday 23rd and Wednesday 24th, shopping for fresh seafood and meat along with fruit and veg can be done with ease.
“a local Market like this runs on the expertise of our small business Traders. We can’t compete with the round-the-clock hours that big retailers can offer, but this year our operating with the spirit of making it as easy as possible for their customers to shop – and to support local.” – Noel, CEO.
Santa Roams the Market:
- Sunday 7th December 12.30pm till 2pm
- Monday 22nd December 11am til 2pm
- Tuesday 23rd December 10am till 11.30am

Discover and find at your Local Ceramic Market, Pot Dispensary
This weekend, Pot Dispensary invites everyone to step inside its South Yarra studio for the Local Ceramic Market. Running this Saturday & Sunday, 10am – 4 pm at 425 Chapel Street. Visitors can explore and purchase a curated collection of functional, and sculptural ceramics — each piece made by one of the studio’s twenty members who share the upstairs workspace.
What sets this market apart is that every participating maker has been preparing their collection over the past few months, guided by Pot Dispensary’s Chief Ceramics Officer, Alexandra Sinclair. Many of these artists first began as Pot Dispensary students, before going out on their own, and creating their own practices and styles. The result is a diverse showcase of ceramics that capture not just, experimentation, and the vibrant community of Pot Dispensary.
We’d love for you to wander the studio, meet the makers, and peek behind the scenes. Studio tours will run throughout the weekend—showing the wheels, kilns, glaze-lab and the space where ideas turn into clay. Plus, if you’re curious to try it yourself, we’re offering $10 studio-access sessions (some experience needed). Beyond the market, we still run our one-off Saturday pottery classes (perfect for beginners) and longer six-week courses that take you through all the steps—wheel-throwing, trimming, glazing, firing—so you can make your own ceramic story.
Whether you’re a long-time ceramics lover, a curious first-timer or somewhere in between, the Local Ceramic Market is open to all. Come say hi, explore our sun-lit studio, and discover something made with intention, heart and community.
For more info or to book a class, visit: potdispensary.com.au
When: 08-09 November 2025
Where: 425 Chapel Street, South Yarra
