Four Ways to Celebrate Mum This May

Mother's Day is one of our favourite times of year. There's something really special about watching someone find the perfect gift for their mum — a piece of jewellery made by hand, a candle that smells like a Sunday morning, or a bunch of dried florals from a maker they've never heard of before. That's the magic of a market, and this May, we've got three beautiful market events across Brisbane to help you make it count and a free movie night for Mum to celebrate her.

Whether you're shopping for a gift, planning a morning out together, or just keen to support local — here's where to find us.

Portside Wharf Mother's Day Market

Saturday 2nd May | 9am – 1pm Portside Wharf, Hamilton

Kick off your Mother's Day shopping at one of Brisbane's most beautiful waterfront precincts. Portside Wharf is the perfect backdrop for a relaxed morning of browsing — think river breezes, gorgeous local makers, and plenty of time to find something truly one-of-a-kind. Expect a curated mix of handmade jewellery, homewares, skincare, art and more. If you're looking for a gift that feels personal rather than commercial, this is the place to start. 

Stones Corner Festival

Sunday 3rd May | 12pm – 5pm Stones Corner, Brisbane

The Stones Corner Festival is one of Brisbane's most beloved community events and we are so proud to be part of it again this year. Thousands of locals fill the streets for a full afternoon of live music, local makers, food and good vibes — it's the kind of afternoon that reminds you why Brisbane is such a brilliant city to live in. Our market precinct sits right in the heart of the action. Come for the atmosphere, stay for the shopping. 

King Street Mother's Day Market

Friday 8th May | 4pm – 9pm King Street, Bowen Hills

Head for after work drinks & shopping for Mum with a twilight market at King Street. This is a stunning evening event — live music, golden hour light, and a buzzing atmosphere in one of Brisbane's most vibrant urban precincts. Perfect for after-work browsing or a proper date night out with Mum. Treat her to dinner at one of the King Street restaurants and pick up something special from the stalls while you're at it. 

Gasworks Mother's Day Movie Night 

Saturday 9th May | 5:30pm – 7:30pm, Gasworks Plaza, Newstead

End your Mother's Day weekend with something a little different. Join us at Gasworks Plaza for a magical evening market under the open sky — grab a meal or picnic from one of the restaurants at Gasworks Plaza, then settle in for a movie night with Mum.

It's a relaxed, feel-good evening in one of Brisbane's most loved precincts. Bring a picnic rug, grab something to eat from the Gasworks restaurants, and make a proper night of it.
