There is also entertainment and plenty of on the spot food sources from temporary stalls and restaurants.
There are now 2 ATM's in the market, and another in the Newsagent if you spend over your budget.
I usually buy from the same few people, who I have been seeing for years - building collections - such as my beautiful boxes from John Tudehope (see pics). A perfect place to go Christmas shopping or just get into mooch mode and enjoy the sights.
Across from the main market is a more minor market, which has some handcrafted items, but mostly Asian imported things - and a Vegetarian Krishna restaurant. Look for "big bum" on the road (pic) with his little spiel to entice you across the road!
It can take a few years for people to get a stall allocation in this market, indicating the standard of merchandise and selectivity of the organisers. Simply a must-see if you visit the Sunshine Coast on either of these days.
