Jubilee Market Hall sits on the south side of the Covent Garden Piazza, one of London's most characterful covered markets and instantly recognisable by its flags, bunting and brass signage. Run by the traders themselves, it changes character through the week, opening early on Monday for antiques and collectables, settling into a general market from Tuesday to Friday, then filling with independent makers selling arts and crafts every weekend. With the Royal Opera House, the London Transport Museum and the main Apple Market all a few steps away, it is an easy, free thing to wander into while exploring the heart of the West End.

Opening times

Jubilee Market is open seven days a week, but what you find depends on the day. Monday is the early antiques and collectables market, running from 5am to 5pm, so dealers and serious browsers tend to arrive at the start of the day. Tuesday to Friday it operates as a general market from 10:30am to 7pm, and at weekends it switches to arts and crafts from 10am to 6pm. For the liveliest atmosphere, come on a Saturday or Sunday when the craft stalls and surrounding Piazza are at their busiest.

What's on the stalls

The mix shifts with the week. Monday's antiques market is one of the broadest in central London, with professional dealers offering everything from Georgian, Victorian and Art Deco pieces to fine jewellery, silver, china and antiquarian books. Midweek the general market leans towards plants, souvenirs, beauty products, clothing and gifts for both locals and visitors. At weekends the hall turns over to independent makers selling handmade jewellery, paintings, calligraphy, prints, clocks and other British-made crafts, alongside food vendors for a quick bite.
