Popular global dining experience Time Out Market will be opening up in Cape Town soon! Here are all the details…
What is Time Out Market?
Ready, set, eat! South African diners are in for a treat SOON, as the first Time Out Market in Africa heads to the V&A Waterfront in 2023.
If you’re not familiar with the concept, Time Out Market showcases a city’s best food and drink experiences under one roof. The Time Out publication picks out the best chefs, bartenders and cultural goings-on from a particular city and then brings them all together to create an awesome tasting menu of the very best stuff the city has to offer.

The very first Time Out Market dates back to 2014 when the first experience was offered in a market hall in Lisbon, Portugal, which quickly became a global tourism attraction, with over 3.9 million visitors in 2018.Â
The market has since opened in Miami, New York, Boston, Montreal, Chicago and Dubai, with Porto, Prague, Abu Dhabi, Osaka and some other cities coming soon, reports Time Out.
