During the summer months you can find night markets and twilight markets around Melbourne and Victoria. Possibly the best known are the Gaslight Markets at the Victoria Market and the St Kilda Beach Market. However beachside towns often delay their summer markets to the cool of the evening. Below is a selection of these markets.

Blender Ln Artists Market

Blender Ln Artists Market takes over a narrow alley covered in graffiti art as well as a warehouse at the end each Wednesday night in summer. It features original art, jewellery and more from local artists. White Hat suggests that if you are going to the popular Queen Victoria Night Market nearby, you also take the opportunity to call in on this much smaller and quite different market.
