Le Marie Marché is a travelling French ambience market in the Netherlands and Belgium. Since 2016 we host pop-up editions with brocante, delicacies, jewellery, art, craft, flowers and plants, clothing and natural cosmetics. Entry is always free.
Where do I find the agenda?
The full agenda is on the markets page and on the location and month landings. Click on an edition for address, opening hours and details.
What are the opening hours?
Most editions open from 11:00 to 17:00. Hours can vary per edition — always check the market page for exact times.
Is entry free?
Yes. Entry to every Le Marie Marché edition is free. An adjacent event (museum, festival) may charge admission separately.
Can I bring my dog?
Dogs are welcome on a leash. On busy hours we suggest leaving your dog at home for their comfort. Indoor venues follow venue policy.
Are the markets wheelchair accessible?
All outdoor locations are wheelchair accessible. For indoor venues we list accessibility per edition on the market page.
How do I pay at the stalls?
Most vendors accept cash and card. A few accept cash only; card is safer and faster. For larger purchases ask the vendor first.

Yes. Every edition has stalls with French and Italian delicacies, coffee and local treats. Some editions have a terrace or food stand.

<p>Do you dream of having your own stall at a Le Marie Marché? How wonderful! We'd love to welcome you to
Log in to your participant environment via /mijn, select your desired market under Upcoming Markets and click "Register". You will receive confirmation by email once MF has reviewed your registration.
How do I reach Le Marie Marché in The Hague by public transport?
By train to Den Haag Central or HS station, then a 10-minute walk or a short tram ride. Tram 16/17 stops near Lange Vijverberg.
When is the best time to visit the Den Haag edition?
Mornings around 11:00 are quiet — ideal for brocante browsing. Between 13:00 and 15:00 it gets livelier, often with live music and more movement. Towards closing you may find a small discount.
Where do I park in Rotterdam?
On Katendrecht park at Fenix Foodfactory garage or Q-Park Wilhelminakade. Hillegersberg has street parking around the Bergse Plassen, usually blue zone.
How do I reach Rotterdam by public transport?
For Katendrecht: tram 25 or waterbus from Central station. For Hillegersberg: metro E to Hillegersberg, then a 5-minute walk.
What should I eat or take home at the Rotterdam edition?
Our tip: a fresh panini at the Italian deli, a jar of Tuscan olives, and a bottle of Provence olive oil. Start with coffee at the bakery stall.
Where do I park in Wassenaar?
Wassenaar centre has plenty of free street parking. For dune editions a temporary parking field is set up; follow signs from the N44.
How do I reach Wassenaar by public transport?
Bus 43 from Den Haag Central stops in Wassenaar centre. From Den Haag Mariahoeve station it takes 15 minutes.
Can I combine the Wassenaar edition with a walk?
Yes — perfect. From the centre it is a 20-minute walk to the dunes and sea. Many visitors combine an hour at the market with a short walk.
What exactly is brocante?
Brocante is the French tradition of vintage finds and old curiosities with character. Not antique: brocante is about atmosphere and used pieces — suitcases, coffee pots, lavender sachets, old photographs — that would otherwise be lost.
Are the delicacies at Le Marie Marché fresh?
Yes. Our vendors work small and honest: olive oil from an Italian family, panettone from a Milanese patisserie, cheese from a French farm. Many stalls offer tasting plates.
When will I hear if my registration is accepted?
Registrations are usually reviewed within 5 working days. During full markets or for specific craft-mix considerations, this may take longer — you'll receive a waiting list status with an indication.
What does craft mean at Le Marie Marché?
Craft means the stalls where you see someone working: ceramics turned in their own studio, wooden spoons carved, baskets woven, fabrics upholstered. It is slow work, often with decades of experience.
Are all jewellery pieces hand-made?
Most are made by hand by the maker themselves — goldsmiths from Zuid-Holland, younger designers, and brocanteurs with vintage pearls and art deco finds. We deliberately avoid mass production.
Which flowers do I find per season?
Spring: tulips, daffodils and lilac. Summer: dahlias, sunflowers and peonies. Autumn: chrysanthemums and hydrangeas. Winter: pine green, dried flowers and eucalyptus. Most are grown in private greenhouses — no import.
How do I become a vendor?
Apply via the registration page. We review your portfolio and atmosphere fit; if it matches we invite you for a first edition. We look for vendors who bring warmth, craft and authenticity.
What does a stall cost?
The price per edition depends on location, size and season — usually between €75 and €175. You receive a fair quote after registering. No hidden costs.
When is set-up and break-down for vendors?
Set-up from 08:30 (winter 09:00), break-down from 17:00 (winter 16:00). You receive a personal check-in 48 hours in advance with your spot and neighbours.
How do I park as a vendor?
Every edition has a vendor parking zone near the load-in. Details are in your set-up kit two days in advance.
What if I need to cancel?
Cancellation up to 14 days before the edition is free. In case of illness on the day: call us — we will find a solution or replacement spot together.
