Co-ordinator Mandy Mayhem-Bullock said there would be a special Christmas market this Sunday
from 10am to 1pm to celebrate.
"Hopefully, we will have some food and music, free cups of tea and coffee."
The market "is for everyone" but, at present, organisers did have to ask people for their My Vaccine Pass to allow for an unlimited group size, she said.
The market had been operating outside Gallery On Blueskin in Harvey St for about eight years, but when the location was sold, a new site had to be found.
Ms Mayhem-Bullock said the market had been a little in limbo for some time so she was elated the Dunedin City Council had supported a long-term arrangement for the new site.
"The wonderful thing about using the hall is that it is our community complex, our hub, the natural place that we come to gather."
The kaupapa (collective vision) of the market was to ensure it was free for stallholders with just a small koha, so finding a low-cost site had been important.
The market would pay the council a nominal hourly fee for toilet cleaning and electricity.
Next year, the market will return to its regular time of the first Sunday of every month from 10am-1pm, starting on January 2.
