Event Details
The Potters Market is a ceramics market held twice a year (March and November). The market is organised by Ceramics SA, and features ceramics of all sorts, created by potters from around the Western Cape. It’s great fun to visit, with pottery of all shapes, sorts and sizes, made by both professional and hobbyist potters. There are always great bargains to be had, especially if you get there early!
In March 2026, the market is relocating to Alphen Common, Constantia, where it will run over two days in partnership with the well-established Alphen Market. The move follows permit and trader limit changes at its long-standing Rondebosch Park venue. Expect a wide selection of handmade ceramics from potters across the Western Cape, with food and drink on site. Free parking, pet-friendly and accessible.
