Markets on Monck's Lane at Crown Quarter

What to Expect

Crown Quarter turns the lane beside its Monck Street premises over to a market on Sunday 30 August, billed on the venue’s own events page as a lively gathering of local flavour, creativity and community. It is a one-day pop-up rather than a standing weekly market, run by the venue as part of its events calendar alongside its themed brunches and Crown Live gigs.

The format sits somewhere between a food market and a makers’ market: local producers and craftspeople take pitches in the laneway, with the Crown Quarter bars and Jasper’s Restaurant open behind them for anyone who wants to stop for a drink or a meal rather than just browse. Monck Street is the busiest run of bars in Wexford town, so a Sunday market here puts the stalls right in the middle of the town’s social quarter rather than out on a school field or a car park, which is where most of the county’s weekly markets trade. Crown Quarter has not published a start and finish time or a stallholder list for the day, so ring the venue on 053 912 1480 or check its events page nearer the date if you want to plan around a particular hour. Wexford town has no other weekly Sunday market, so this is a one-off worth catching if you are in town that weekend.

Getting There

Monck Street runs through Wexford town centre, a few minutes on foot from Main Street, the Bullring and the quays. O’Hanrahan station on Redmond Square is about a ten-minute walk, served by Irish Rail from Dublin Connolly and Rosslare Europort. By car it is roughly an hour and forty minutes from Dublin on the M11 and N11, and about 45 minutes from Rosslare Europort on the N25. Parking on Monck Street itself is very limited, so use one of the town-centre car parks.
