Greenwich Market is the perfect backdrop to your next screen inspired day out.

In the mood for love? Greenwich Market sees many a blossoming romance. Between accidentally bumping into your future love, or snatching a furtive glance across the aisles on your first date, to tasting new foods and buying each other gifts, atmospheric Greenwich Market provides the perfect scene for fates to unfold.

More into action than romance? There are plenty of traders at Greenwich Market who can fill that need. Avoid getting drawn into a game of cat-and-mouse like the stars of Now You See Me 2 did – Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson and Dave Franco – which was filmed at this very location in 2016. Make sure to visit our very own magician at Michael’s Magic Shop, he may even show you a card trick or two inspired by the film. Or pick up a Tarantino-inspired poster or a T-shirt of your favourite action hero instead.

Fans of The Apprentice will appreciate how pivotal the lessons of the market are to life in the fast lane. Buying, selling, strategising, analysing… it may all go on behind the scenes but Greenwich Market is also very much centre stage as one of the filming locations of this hugely popular UK television series.

Greenwich Market can’t claim all the silver screen glory for itself.

Our very own market traders have had a taste of screen stardom: Laura Lees Morgan has had her hand-crafted hairpins chosen to feature in a £40 million advertising campaign for Ford, starring Mads Mikkelsen, and Richard Chown is an award-winning goldsmith working with top clients such as Johnny Depp!

And as a beautifully preserved historic venue (Greenwich Market has been trading here since 1737) you can also cast yourself in your own period drama under the glass and iron roof or along its cobbled lanes. Pick up vintage gems like vintage maps, old postcards, hand-stitched journals and up-cycled treasures and let the historic vibe sweep you away to yesteryear.
