Braam and Jozi weekends just got a whole lot cooler, here's why

Pay Braam

HJ fans, Joburg just got even hotter and it’s not because of the season, or heatwave but rather thanks to The Playground Braamfontein.

Background

The Playground is a weekly market, by Play Braamfontein which opened in Braamfontein at the end of January 2022.

The concept was brought to life by the co-founder of the hugely popular Neighbourgoods Market, Adam Levy.

“The Playground will amplify new stories and build new storytellers in this city. It will excite a whole new generation and be a holding place for outstanding talent,” says Levy.

Expect a weekly artisan food Market every Saturday with a menu of gourmet street food ( 30 food stalls) and cocktails as well as a a showcase of the best up and coming young designers in South Africa. Oh and did we mention live music will form a part of the weekly musical programme?

The Playground artisan market will open from 09:00-18:00 every Saturday and include an afternoon music line-up.
