What to expect
A rotating lineup of Christchurch food trucks and market stalls: fried chicken, dumplings, empanadas, curries, fresh bakes, loaded fries and bubble tea, plus seating to settle into and music through the afternoon. Bring the whānau, come hungry.
Most Christchurch markets are outdoors, so a wet Sunday wipes them out. Ours sits under the Durham Street bridge and inside the underpass, so it goes ahead in any weather and runs from late morning into the evening.
Under the Pass
Once a month, on the 15th, for Christchurch food businesses: what's coming up at the market, tips for running a food business, what's on around town and a free notice board. Issue 01 went out on 15 October.
