The Neighbourgoods Market
The Neighbourgoods Market in Braamfontein is Johannesburg's most celebrated weekend market and one of the city's great social institutions. Running every Saturday morning, it transforms Juta Street and the surrounding precinct into a vibrant hub of artisan food, craft, music, and community.
The market brings together over 100 independent traders selling freshly baked bread, specialty coffee, handmade cheeses, craft beers, plant-based street food, international cuisine, and locally made goods ranging from fashion and jewellery to ceramics and artwork. Every stall is independently run, ensuring an eclectic and ever-changing selection.
Beyond shopping and eating, the Neighbourgoods Market is a genuine cultural event: local musicians and DJs perform throughout the morning, the energy is social and convivial, and the crowd reflects the full diversity of modern Johannesburg. It's the kind of market where you come for coffee and leave four hours later having discovered half a dozen new favourite products.
The market runs every Saturday from 09:00 to 15:00. Arrive early for the best selection from bakers and specialty food producers. Entry is free.
