Reflecting on 2024, the Bryanston Market again stands out as a vibrant hub of community, creativity, and cultural celebration.
According to Cerys Bullock Pharoah, the managing director of the market, this year was marked by an incredible array of events that brought together the local community, families, and artisans in a true celebration of craftsmanship, food, and unity.

She added that the spring kicked off with the Spring Moonlight Market on the first Friday of September, where visitors were treated to a lively celebration of international food and dance.
“The night was accompanied by diverse international cuisine and cultural dance displays, creating an unforgettable experience for all as we welcomed the new season.”
Pharoah said Women’s Day, a cherished public holiday, brought together the community for empowering talks and the exhilarating ice bath challenge, offering a refreshing and inspiring way to honour the strength and resilience of women.
“Visitors also danced the morning away during Secret Sunrise events, which celebrated Freedom Day and Heritage Day, fostering a joyful sense of unity and freedom through movement and music.”
Pharoah highlighted that one of the year’s most eagerly awaited events was their annual Diwali Moonlight Market, a radiant evening filled with colour, lights, and cultural performances that lit up the night, capturing the spirit of Diwali in all its glory.
