In 1682, King Charles II granted a Royal Charter to John Balch to hold the market on Thursdays and Saturdays. Today the market is famous for supporting artists, unique displays of goods, designer stores, outdoor events, street food and modern cafes, restaurants and bars.
Spitalfields Market has been one of East London’s oldest attractions for selling vast arrays of goods from handmade crafts to antiques and high-end fashion items.
