Cardiff Market will open on a Friday evening for the first time ever for a one-off return of the 'Night Market,' complete with live music and a range of independent traders. The exact details of which traders will be present are still being finalised.
The event is being organised as part of the 'City of Arcades' week which will see more than 35 events taking place across the city's seven arcades. The week, which will start on Saturday, October 29, will be comprised of live music, food tastings, drag shows jewellery making, a walking trail for families based on the castle's famous animal wall, and discounts across shops in the arcades.
And the market will open on Friday, November 4 between 6pm and 9pm as part of the event. Louise Thomas, the market manager, said: "It’s exciting opening up on a Friday night for the first time.
