THE EXPERIENCE
The thing that we love the most about markets has to be the street eats, which is followed closely by the opportunity it gives us to support local artists and businesses! And The Rocks Night Market provides both alongside one of the worlds most renowned harbours.
The Rocks is a must visit Sydney destination whether you’re here for a couple of days or living local. It’s situated behind the Sydney Harbour Bridge (icon), and across the Sydney Opera House (double-icon). The area has a unique blend of modern boutique stores, art galleries, bars, upscale restaurants and an ever-changing line up of street performers.
I planned our visit for the opening weekend of VIVID so that we could hit two birds with one stone, figuratively of course. It was a cold Autumn night as we boarded a train with our adventure bag and a keep cup full of red wine. We arrived at Central Station and changed for the City Circle line which would drop us straight into the heart of Circular Quay. As we stepped off the train we were instantly Wow’ed by bright neon colours splashed upon the city scape. Zade and I alongside hundreds of others stopped to take some quick photos before moving on.
At the top of Argyle street the market continues right into Playfair Street. And about half way down the air begins to fill with delicious aromas of FOOOOOD! We followed our noses assessing each stall, their staff and of course the produce. We couldn’t say no to Nonna’s pizza at Thats Amore.
Like I said before, if you’re heading into Sydney for The Rocks Night Market, make sure you go on an empty stomach.
