POLLEN MARKET // 19 March

Popping up on the third Sunday of every month, Pollen is an inner-city flower market that delivers an abundance of greenery, live music, art, local produce and more. Brought to you by the team behind Peddler Market, Pollen has gone some way into turning the Castlegate grey-to-green scheme into a bustling destination area. With its close proximity to the canal basin, you can expect some special events to accompany it, such as paddle boarding and kayaking.
