Spring’s in the air, and so is the vibe at Hartelus Market! On Saturday, 7 September 2024, Parys is the place to be. This beloved local market is back to celebrate the start of the warmer months with a mix of food, crafts, live music, and laid-back vibes on the banks of the Vaal River. You can almost smell the boerewors rolls sizzling already.
The Details You Need
The event kicks off at 9 am and runs until 3 pm, so there’s plenty of time to browse, eat, and enjoy the entertainment. The market takes place at Egweni River Lodge, 2 Van Coller Street, and entrance is just R10 per person. Kids under 10 and golden oldies over 70 get in for free, so bring the whole family along. No online ticket drama here—just rock up and pay at the entrance.

More Than Just a Market
Hartelus Market isn’t your average Saturday morning flea market. Sure, you’ll find all the usual suspects—clothes, jewellery, shoes, and that cream your friend swears by—but there’s also plenty to surprise you. The vendors are a creative bunch, and they’re always coming up with something new. You never know, you might just stumble upon that “where have you been all my life” item.
Foodie Heaven
Feeling peckish? Lizz Meiring will be there with her MIAM stall, offering treats that won’t wreck your diet but still taste like a cheat day. Whether you’re grabbing a quick snack or stocking up for a riverside picnic, there’s plenty to keep your taste buds happy.

Tunes for the Day
And yes, there will be live music! Expect golden oldies that take you on a trip down memory lane, with everything from 50s classics to today’s hits. Pop, country, rock, and even some contemporary Afrikaans tunes will keep the atmosphere buzzing.

Save the Date!
So, that’s Saturday, 7 September 2024, at Hartelus Market. It’s R10 to get in, and kids and over-70s get in free. Whether you’re there for the food, the crafts, or just a good time with the family, Hartelus Market is where it’s at. And let’s be honest—any excuse to escape the winter blues is a good one, right?
