The renowned Pipeworks Market is coming back to the northern suburbs at a new location.

The market will be located at 5 Dunstans Court, Thomastown, running every Saturday and Sunday.

It will be opening up to the public on Saturday, May 21, with a Bananas in Pyjamas show for the kids on the Saturday and ABBA tribute act, BABBA, performing on the Sunday at 1pm.

The 10,000 square metre shed will house hundreds of stalls including clothing, takeaway and ready to eat food, fruit and vegetables, plants, homewares and more.

There will also be amusements and rides for the kids and cultural, community and children’s stage shows.

Locals took to Facebook to reminisce on their time spent at the market and share their excitement for the new one.

“Loved the Pipeworks, been far too long. Glad it’s coming back,” one resident said.

The old market used to be at Campbellfield before closing its doors in 201.

Pipeworks marketing manager Peter Green said the return of the market was going to make “everybody happy.”

“We’re excited to think that at last the people and the residents of Thomastown and the entire region have now got a permanent public market that they’ve been denied for many, many years,” he said.
