The Milk Market in Limerick City is one of the city’s most beloved weekend destinations — a lively historic market space that’s been operating since 1852 and now sits under Ireland’s largest single-column canopy. On Fridays and Sundays, you’ll find an outdoor café vibe with live music, brunch options and stalls selling crafts, antiques, vinyl records, garden plants and vintage treasures alongside local artisan foods. On Saturdays the famous Food Market bursts into life with fresh, locally sourced produce — from artisan cheeses and breads to seasonal fruit, vegetables, fish and gourmet street food — making it a favourite stop for food lovers. Beyond the regular weekend markets, the Milk Market also hosts a variety of themed fairs and special events throughout the year, such as the Limerick Garden Festival with gardening talks and plant stalls in June, culture and community events like Culture Night celebrations with food and live music, and seasonal fairs tied to festivals and holidays. These fairs and markets combine a strong community atmosphere with great shopping, eating and entertainment, making the market an essential part of Limerick’s cultural life.
