I spent a Saturday morning at Greatie market to understand the magic behind it

If you’re from Liverpool, you know Greatie Market.

Whether you’ve heard stories from your mum over the years or you’ve been dragged out of bed early on a Saturday morning to be first to the bargains, everyone seems to have a Greatie story. The Great Homer Street market has long been a staple in Liverpool’s history - and its stall holders plan on it continuing to be.

For more than 180 years, Greatie Market has been part of Liverpool, and has remained at the heart of the city even after several changes. It runs every Saturday with hundreds of stallholders offering a wide variety of products, from fruit and veg, meats and cakes to flowers, crafts and clothing.
