Step into a world of colour, connection & cosmic charm at the Celestial Love Market - a luminous celebration of love in all its forms, lighting up Freyberg Square this Valentine’s Day.
Curated by Anita Tana, Creative Director of Celestial Corner this gathering is a heartfelt tribute to creativity, community & the many ways we express & share love. Here, all love, especially queer love, shines brightly.
Explore a sparkling constellation of stalls showcasing rainbow allies & queer makers offering handcrafted treasures, treats & thoughtfully made goods. Enjoy atmospheric sounds, savour Elote Cartel’s authentic American–Mexican street kai & soak in a celestial ambience designed to spark joy, warmth & wonder.
Whether you’re spending the day with a partner, a friend, or your chosen whānau, the CELESTIAL LOVE MARKET invites you to celebrate love : radiant, inclusive & beautifully human.
This event is a Proud Centre activation within the Auckland Pride Festival 2026, aligning with the festival kaupapa Ngā Uri E! which is about honouring whakapapa, collective journeys & the many generations & communities who shape Tāmaki Makaurau.
Together, we celebrate queer creativity as a force of renewal, connection & shared futures.
