“We’ll have a range of established Covid-19 safety measures in place; such as hand sanitizer stations, social distancing and a one-way system. Follow @urbanmarketni on Instagram and Facebook to find out more.”

The market kicks off the ‘Living the Green Way’ festival which will take place along the Connswater Community Greenway from September 12 to 19, encouraging people to live ‘greener and healthier’ lifestyles.
