A Sunday market in the grounds of the Avondale Racecourse at 2 Ash Street, Avondale, Auckland. The market is privately owned by Robb Kemp and his family, and it is open every Sunday except Christmas, from 6am to 12 noon, rain or shine. The website says it is New Zealand's biggest one-day market and the oldest running, drawing up to 20,000 people a day.
The market is known for fruit and vegetables at good prices, and for ingredients from across the Pacific and Asia, including Vietnamese, Thai, Indian, Chinese and Pacific Island foods that are hard to find elsewhere. There are also car boot items. Parking on the showgrounds costs $3, and street parking is difficult, so public transport is suggested. From Avondale station it is an 11-minute walk, and visitors can follow the crowds. Stalls are arranged through Robb Kemp.
