Indian Festival at Queen Victoria Market


  • Queen Victoria Market (map)

Coming back to Queen Vic Market is the annual Indian Festival. With delicious winter warmer flavours, energetic performances, and amazing energy, we can’t wait to “balle balle” with you.

It will be undercover in the icon sheds of the market so Melbourne weather will not stop anyone. Simply grab your cup of chai and hot curry while you enjoy the festivities, join in the performances and browse through the market stalls.

While we have your favourites of butter chicken etc, travel through the subcontinent and taste the flavours of regional Indian cuisine to fusion flavours of India. An event not to be missed on the Foodie Trails festival calendar this year and every year!
