The Fitzroy Mills Market — Attraction in Melbourne

Perhaps a little overstated on their website...see below...still worth a visit, these markets will continue to evolve until they hit the sweet spot.

Located a modest 40min walk north of Melbourne CBD or a short tram ride #11, in an old disused Mill which is now a carpark when the Market is not open on Saturdays from 9am to 2pm.

The market, which has been open since Nov 2017, and set up by 3 siblings, is quite interesting and great of itself, but in essence I rate it ALSO 5 star because of the Wall Murals. Visiting these has become very popular around the world, and the ones at and around the Old Mills are not just the usual boring swirls of graffiti. These are quite a good attempt at real modern art. Some of it is commissioned, and may change on a regular basis. The below is sourced from Google and the Markets website

I love this place. It’s small (read: niche) but has a lovely selection of local and homemade goodies. The stalls are not identical each week but there are several “permanent” stalls. The fresh produce is tasty and inexpensive. There’s always some other goodies to try.

Parking at top and easily accessible by public transport along Brunswick Street. There’s a good café across the road that’s always busy and a couple of other good places heading west along Rose St if you want a bit there - although there are tables and a couple of food truck type stalls at the market itself. You also have the plethora of eating houses along Brunswick Street anyway.

Whilst you’re there, check out Rose St pantry and the artists market. Both are always fabulous. You could spend a while morning along this stretch of Rose Street with the Fitzroy Mills Market. Ring...

Fitzroy Mills Market is an absolute must-visit for anyone who loves unique finds, vintage fashion, and great Melbourne market energy!

It's set in a fantastic space that feels genuinely Fitzroy, with cool graffiti and a mix of indoor/outdoor stalls. Browse the huge selection of vintage and pre-loved clothing, unique jewelry, and records. There's great food and coffee options to keep you energized while you shop.

The photos really capture the vibe—it’s busy, buzzy, and full of life. It’s perfect for a weekend morning browse to find some truly one-of-a-kind treasures. Highly recommend stopping by Rose Street for this market!

Highlights: Excellent vintage clothing selection, cool location,...
