Covent Garden Market
Covent Garden Market stands in central London as a historic market surrounded by seventeen streets and one historic piazza. The open piazza brings street performers and musicians into the space. Once a major fruit and vegetable market, the area now brings together independent traders, shops, restaurants, cafés, and bars.
Apple Market displays handmade jewellery, prints, watercolours, and crafts from independent makers. On another market day, its stalls feature silver plate tea sets, vintage jewellery, ceramics, antiques, and collectables. East Colonnade Market offers handmade soaps, sweet treats, and jewellery beside the main building. Jubilee Market occupies Jubilee Hall, built in 1904, listed Grade II in 1980, and reopened after restoration in 1987.
Jubilee Market adds British-made crafts, vintage goods, felt work, toys, cards, and antique cutlery transformed into jewellery. Forks, spoons, and knives become distinctive accessories at Forks to Jewellery. The surrounding theatres, historic buildings, and lively piazza connect London’s past with its present.
