- 6-8 hours: £80
- 8-12 hours: £120

Health and safety
We’re a busy commercial site and it’s important you’re aware of your safety at all times. Because we're such a busy site, we don't allow under 16s or dogs (apart from assistance dogs) on the market.
High visibility clothing is best when on the market, especially where vehicles are loading and unloading. We’re busiest overnight when there’s lots of fork lift trucks and delivery vehicles moving around, so take extra care in the dark.
If you’re on foot, please keep to the pedestrian walkways marked up with a yellow man. You can see a map of the pedestrian routes around the market here.
Rules of the road
The market might seem like its own world, but the laws of the land still apply. In this case the Road Traffic Act. Please keep to the speed limit of 20mph and watch out for fork lift trucks and pedestrians.
You can download our full Traffic Management Policy here.
Photography and filming
If you’d like to take photos or film at the market, please get in touch with our Communications Team. You’ll need to apply for permission and they’ll help with any questions you have.
Cafés and shops
Early mornings aren’t always easy. We get that. Good thing there’s a few cafes dotted around the market to keep you going. We have three cafés and a convenience store with post office in the Fruit and Veg Market, and a fourth café in the Flower Market. Red or brown sauce?
