Fridays at The Rocks Markets

The Rocks Markets have returned to Fridays, your go to destination for hot food, artisanal products and quick gifts.

Every Friday from 10am to 3pm, the historic lanes of Jack Mundey Place, Playfair Street, and Atherden Street come alive with the sizzling aromas of street food, the buzz of local makers, and the energy of happy food lovers.

This weekly market experience in The Rocks is the perfect Friday escape. Whether you’re grabbing a gourmet lunch, hunting for unique gifts, or stocking up on artisanal food products, The Rocks Markets has something for everyone:

• Hot street food from local traders – from flame-grilled skewers and freshly folded dumplings to indulgent pastries and sweet treats, there’s a flavour to satisfy every craving.
• Artisanal food products – local honey, handmade chocolates, gourmet condiments, and spicy sauces to elevate your weekend entertaining or weekday dinners.
• Quick gifts and unique finds – browse hand-made jewellery, baby clothes, or gift cards and discover one-of-a-kind items perfect for friends, family, or yourself.

Nestled in the heart of Sydney’s historic Rocks precinct, The Rocks Markets are your new end-of-week ritual. Step away from your desk and into a vibrant laneway filled with fresh flavours, hot food, and artisan delights—the ultimate way to celebrate Friday in Sydney.
