New Riverside Market

25,000 people visited the brand new Riverside Market in Christchurch, on its first Saturday.

It is another innovative way to attract people into the city centre after the devastation of the 2011 earthquake.

It consists of 3,500  sq metres of undercover food outlets, stalls and a food collective, with rooftop bars and restaurants to open soon.  The Market is linked to laneways containing boutique shops, restaurants, cafes and bars.  

Adding to the vibrancy of Christchurch.
