AN exciting new pop-up shipping container market on the Dublin Road is to open on Friday.

After three years in development, Trademarket Belfast will be located on the site of the former Movie House Cinema.

The containers used to form Trademarket have been re-homed from the site surrounding the former Bank Buildings after the Primark fire in 2018.
