Port Charmers Artisan Markets is a monthly market in Port Chalmers, on the Otago Harbour side of Dunedin, run by the team behind the town's cruise ship markets. The artisan markets began during the Covid-19 lockdown, when the cruise ships stopped coming in March 2020, and they have kept going since. Most of the stallholders are the ones who sold at the cruise ship markets, which started in 2017, and others who like to do the occasional market. Every stallholder lives in Port Chalmers or the district around it, so the goods are made and sold by people from the town.
The market is held on the second or last Saturday of the month during winter and spring, in the Pioneer Hall on Grey Street. The organisers say it will run monthly until the cruise ships return, so the dates depend on the season and the ships. For a town that lived off the cruise ship visitors for three years, the market has become a way for local makers to keep selling to people who live nearby. The market is on the Grey Street address, so the venue is easy to find on foot from the town centre.
