Jesmond Food Market on Armstrong Bridge attracted large crowds on Saturday, 17 October, despite light rain, as over 40 traders offered a wide range of groceries, produce, and food.
Market growth and management
The market, which has been running for seven years, is managed by the same organisers behind the Hebburn and South Shields markets. The South Shields market is currently being revived through a six-month pilot to assess its potential.
Crowds and future dates
Based on the size of the turnout despite the weather, the market remains popular in Jesmond. The next market is scheduled for 7 November, running from 10am to 3pm.
