The Turkish Pazar Festival will take visitors on a magical journey through Türkiye at the iconic Queen Victoria Market with a vibrant, free and family-friendly celebration of food, music, dance and culture.
Visitors can enjoy the vibrant tastes, colours and sounds of a trip to Türkiye without leaving home. With numerous food stalls, choose from Melbourne’s favourite Turkish sweet and savoury foods offering many choices for vegans and vegetarians. Relax while watching the exciting entertainment program with old and new friends. Cultural displays will introduce the traditional Turkish art of ebru (paper marbling) and showcase arts and crafts from Türkiye and Cyprus. On Sunday a highlight will be the military precision of the colourful Australian Ottoman Mehter Band.
Whether you’re discovering Türkiye for the first time, planning a trip, reminiscing about your happy memories of Türkiye or reconnecting with familiar traditions, the Turkish Pazar Festival offers something for everyone!
