The Vaal is best known for hosting some of the hottest festivals but lately we have also seen a shift to a meaningful way of having fun through social markets that have emerged around us. Whether you are looking to make money, to network or simply vibe, here are some cool social markets to look out for.

Sharpeville Arts and Craft Market
From 2017, Sharpeville has become a home for top quality arts and craft. From fashion, food, books, photography to specialized services, Sharpeville Arts and Craft Market has everything for everyone. To top it all, you get this creative environment where people click with one another while good music is blaring in the background, or while enjoying local performances on stage. All this happens every first weekend of the month.
Ola Food Market
If you’re the liker of things (like us), you’ll definitely find Ola Food Market a thing for you. this food market offers great food and drinks during the day and a great turn up in the evening where you get Vaal’s top Dj’s serving their best. And their cover fee is close to nothing.
Sharpeville Food Festival
This is an annual market that will leave your jaws on the floor if you thought it’s just another food fest. The event attracts the best chefs from all places to make sure that the thousands of foodies attending experience dishes that are out of this world. Once the stomach politics are sorted, visitors get to enjoy a helicopter ride to get the best view of the Vaal and when they touch down, they’re likely to find big acts like AKA on stage.
