Welcome to Year 5 of my Christmas vigil to commemorate Footscray Market’s inability to publish their Christmas/New Year’s opening hours online. Consider my annual dose of community service done. Here are the trading hours:
Monday 23 December: 7:00am-4:00pm
Tuesday 24 December (Christmas eve): 7:00am-4:00pm
25-26 December: Closed
Friday 27 December: 7:00am – 7:00pm
Saturday 28 December: 7:00am – 5:00pm
29 – 30 December: Closed
Tuesday 31 December: 7:00am-4:00pm
Wednesday 1 January (New Year’s Day 2014): Closed
The regular opening hours for Footscray Market are:
Tuesday and Wednesday – 7:00am-4:00pm
Thursday – 7:00am-6:00pm
Friday – 7:00am-8:00pm
Saturday – 7:00am-4:00pm
Yeah, what’s with that?! Couldn’t find the Christmas/New Year opening = hours anywhere apart from your blog. Why doesn’t the market have a web page???
I honestly have no idea why they don’t have a website.
Many thanks for publishing this information. Crazy that it is not readily available given that efforts are being made to promote Footscray and some of the longterm stallholders at the moment.
Thank you, Until I found your post I thought the Footscray Market would be closed and I was going to treck into the Vic Market.
I wonder how many other people will think the same and how many lost sales there will be for the Footscray Traders?
Thanks,great info.
I would love to know Preston market opening times over Xmas and new year too.
