Rain can’t stop the fun at Emperors Palace night market

Despite wet conditions, hundreds enjoyed craft stalls, live music, food and family-friendly activities in a weather-proof indoor setting.

Hundreds of families, food and fun lovers descended on Emperors Palace to relax and unwind at the Benoni Night Market.

Although not quite in Benoni, the market was moved from its normal venue to the Palace of Dreams’ Convention Centre undercover parking because of the forecasted inclement weather.
