Scherri explores Fremantle Markets, where a $3M upgrade adds to Freo’s holiday celebrations with unique gifts, global flavors, and festive cheer.

• Fremantle Markets, located in Fremantle (or "Freo" to the locals), offer a vibrant blend of rich history and modern culture. Since 1897, the markets have been a hub for local crafts, fresh produce, and one-of-a-kind finds.
• Every purchase supports local makers, small businesses, and artisans, ensuring your gifts are not only unique but also meaningful. Shopping here means giving back to the community.
• During the holiday season, Fremantle Markets buzz with energy—from the aroma of fresh donuts and coffee to live music by buskers. It’s the perfect place to soak in the Christmas cheer with family.
• The markets are a foodie’s paradise, featuring international street food, gourmet treats, and the freshest produce.
• As part of a $3 million improvement project starting in July 2024, Fremantle Markets are enhancing their food stalls, services, and infrastructure while preserving their historic charm. Completion is expected by January 2025.
• Open every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, with extended hours during the holidays, Fremantle Markets are the heart of Freo’s festive celebrations—offering shopping, history, and memories waiting to be made.
