Paddington Market, Sydney

Something colourful to share, taken from our visit to Paddington Markets. Even though, it was one year ago, I remember it was a relaxing afternoon to admire variety, creativity, originality, practicality, quaintness and deliciousness. I love wandering in Aussie outdoor markets.

This one in particular, has a playground area for me to dump the girls and wander all by my self (The hub and the relatives willing to look after them at the playground area).


Sited in the grounds of the heritage-listed sandstone Uniting Church, Paddington Markets believe very much in supporting local people passionate about small Australian designers and business. You can have a better idea of all stallhoders through this long list. Among them, I met ceramic sign/decor specialist- Mooza Designs, Jewelry Holders maker- Litsa Meleti (I wanted to buy this...), gorgeous kids attires by Marialy Murray. The products that they are selling are utmost meticulous and love.

Eventually, we bought a pot of tulip for my aunt's birthday.


Address  [Map]
395 Oxford St
Paddington 2021

Operating Time
Every Saturday 10am to 4pm/5pm DST

Oxford Street is one of the most bustling streets that is lined with fashion, homeware stores, cafes and restaurants. You can find Dinosaurs Designs, an Australian based homeware and jewelry store. However, it was approaching to 5 by the time we finished touring Paddington Markets, most of the shops were closed and we needed to head to my aunt's place for dining.

  3. They look fantastic! I love markets, but haven't been in ages! It is hard with a 5 year old who couldn't really care less about lazily wandering and getting "lost" amongst it all! Maybe this weekend...thanks for the inspiration!

  5. I went there about 16 years ago (wow that seems ages!) and bought the best top. I had so many compliments from it afterwards. Would love to go back one day.
