Te Atatu Peninsula Artisan & Handmade Market

Picture this --- nestled right in the heart of Te Atatu Peninsula, our Auckland artisan and handmade market is a little slice of creative heaven. We're not your average market – we're all about community and showcasing the absolute best in handcrafted creations.

You'll find us setting up shop in the Main Hall of the Te Atatu Peninsula Community Centre. We invite you to join us in celebrating the incredible talent Kiwis have to offer. Every market day is a chance to browse and abundance of unique artisan and handmade products. These pieces are lovingly created by artists and craftspeople who are absolutely passionate about what they do. We've got our regular crew of artisans, craftspeople and local small businesses who grace us with their presence each time, along with some fresh new faces.

Want to stay in the loop? Keep an eye on our Facebook Page or swing by our website for updates and sneak peeks.

And it doesn't stop there – each month our collection evolves. Imagine strolling through a wonderland of beautiful bath and body products, handmade soaps that smell divine, aromatic hand-poured soy candles casting a cozy glow, and an array of handcrafted goodies from knitted treasures to eco-conscious delights. Think traditional handcrafts, unique gifts, wood craft, toys, dolls' clothes, stunning quilts, vibrant art, heartfelt greeting cards, and so much more.

The easiest way into the Main Hall is via Pringle Road. As you browse our market, enjoy toe-tapping tunes by our inhouse DJ. Relax under the shade of trees in the nearby park, sip on a takeaway market espresso, or savour a tasty bite at one of the local eateries. The bustling state-of-the-art Te Atatu Peninsula Library (of which locals are proud) is open on Saturdays, plus it's packed with some cool facilities.

Our market is all about accessibility – it's a breeze to get around with a wheelchair or a pushchair. Accessible toilets are close at hand, as are several Eftpos machines. Quite a few of our talented stallholders accept credit cards and Eftpos payments, making shopping a breeze. As for parking, you'll find the car-park on Pringle Road to make your visit smooth.

We're super conveniently located! A quick hop from the motorway, moments from Waterview Tunnel and a mere 20-minute drive from Auckland’s CBD. If you're a local, pedal power will get you to us.

Live a little further afield? The cycleways are nearby or you could hop on a bus heading to Te Atatu Peninsula. The bus stops are just steps from the market and the Library.

We're all about homegrown talent, so if you're an artist or creator of your own goodies, you're in the right place. Our application process is straightforward – just complete the online form and see if you're accepted.

Bookings are a must and you need to bring your own tables, as we don't provide those. We've got a standby list that we give some love to every now and then.

While we're mostly about handcrafts, we have a couple of spots for food wizards. If you're a baker, jam maker, or creator of delectable relishes, then get in touch! Just ensure you've got your Auckland Council food grading certificate close at hand. And while we're on the subject of glorious food - no cans of drink or hot takeaway food are for sale in the hall. But we do have a barista serving up delectable takeaway coffees.

Catch you soon at our little slice of creative paradise!
