Bedfordview Night Market Goes on Tour ignites Edenvale with street-food sorcery tonight, Friday, January 30, from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM at the sprawling Giants Baseball Club grounds on the corner of 5th Street and 17th Avenue.
This pop-up edition of Joburg’s beloved Bedfordview sensation ditches its home turf to launch 2026 with a flavour fireworks display—dozens of vendors slinging artisanal eats, craft brews, and dessert dreams amid live tunes and family frenzy under East Rand stars.
Picture the scene: golden-hour sun dipping as braai smoke curls skyward, peri-peri prawns sizzling next to artisanal bobotie bites, Korean baos bumping elbows with biltong tacos.
Signature stalls hawk gourmet vetkoek stuffed with pulled brisket, truffle-drizzled platters, and boozy milkshakes that blur the dinner-cocktail line.
Kids’ zones pulse with face-painting and jumping castles while grown-ups chase hazy IPAs and gin paddles, all soundtracked by acoustic sets morphing into DJ drops.
It’s chaotic bliss: strangers bond over shared skewers, laughter ricochets off baseball backstops, and that unbeatable night-market alchemy turns weekdays into wonder.
Giants Baseball Club? Open-air perfection—vast fields begging picnics, shaded seating for lingering, easy parking in the lot, and porta-loos that won’t ruin the vibe.
R25 entry adults, R10 kids—cashless vendors galore, but ATMs lurk for emergencies.
Edenvale’s low-key charm (minutes from Bedfordview via Modderfontein) delivers hassle-free access from your Gauteng base, syncing seamlessly with parkrun recoveries or cultural chases like gallery glides.
