Oval Night Market

Bethnal Green’s nocturnal NYC-style market is making a comeback this weekend. What’s NYC about it? It’s got a bit of a ‘block party’ feel, but other than that, we’ve no idea. But we do know it’s set to take over a very big space, which will make social distancing a hell of a lot easier. The roads surrounding the imposing Tower Hamlets gas holders will be closed off to make way for traders flogging cocktails and street food, art prints, crafty bits, and posh skincare products. Deliveries are great and all, but we’ve really missed those days of impulse-buying expensive organic soap at a market stall.
