The success in Lisbon brought further expansion, with Time Out markets opening in Miami, New York, Boston, Montreal, Chicago, and Dubai.

Time Out says the new market will come to life in late 2023. It’ll be equipped with 14 kitchens, all run by different top Cape Town chefs and four bars with drinks co-curated by Mother City’s best bars. There’ll also be a stage for live performances.

There’ll be room for approximately 750 visitors, including quayside tables with jaw-dropping views of our beloved Table Mountain. With Cape Town’s reputation for having some of the best markets in Cape Town, the Time Out Market is sure to be a hit with locals and tourists alike.
