About Field Market

Sandton is the commercial and retail hub of Johannesburg in Gauteng, and is arguably the favourite centre of South Africa for keen shopaholics. This makes it the ideal venue for all sorts of fun and exciting things to do and see, for both locals and international tourists alike. However, the scenic Field and Study Park, right in the heart of the city and ideal for visitors who stay in Sandton, Field & Study Park remains a pleasant surprise for its tranquil atmosphere and rustic appeal.

This is a gorgeous spot, characterised by open spaces and the clear blue skies of Africa. This park hosts the open-air market one Saturday a month, and provides a place where locals and visitors can meet and relax within beautiful natural surrounds, immersing themselves in the sense of community for which the Rainbow Nation is acclaimed.

This vibrant market showcases the very best of local talent, with a particular focus on all things organic. There is a fantastic variety of food, art and art prints, clothing, accessories (including jewellery), sweets and home-baked treats, unique goodies for the home and d�cor items, fresh flowers, artisan coffees, deli products and an array of local crafts.

Exploring the stalls at leisure gives visitors the prime opportunity to stock up on excellent finds and great keepsakes, as well as for gifts for friends and family back home. Local farmers, artisan bakers, grocers, butchers, and the like are thus given the perfect platform on which to market and sell their goods to a broad spectrum of people.

The live music performances create a fun and relaxed atmosphere. There is plenty of seating under the trees, as well as a large play area with activities for little ones to while away the hours and burn some energy. Dogs on leashes are welcome to be part of the market experience. Free parking is available, and the area is kept secure.
