The Market's Final Party, 9pm-11am, Saturday May 28, 2011.

It's the final countdown... After 11 years The Market Hotel is closing its doors.

I'm sure we've all heard by now that it's going to remain "gay friendly", but let's face it this is the end of The Market as we all know and love it.

Everyman and her dog has a story about this Melbourne institution and it'll be sad to see her go. Getting trashed may never be the same again.

Matt from The Market shares his thoughts on the end of an era.

Dolly: Matt, is there nothing we can do to stop this madness?

Matt: Sadly not... the only thing we can do now is go out on an incredible high. We are obviously all a bit sad about it all coming to an end but we want everyone to remember the final night.

Melbourne has a lot of history with The Market. We've been hearing from all sorts of people over the last few months. People telling us how they met on the dancefloor or up on the roof terrace. It's going to be a great night all of us here can be proud of.

D: Tickets have sold like the proverbial hot cakes. You should do what Cher does and keep having farewell nights.

M: Not a bad idea, but no, this is definitely it. The tickets have sold really quickly which only goes to show how people feel about The Market and the fact that it's all coming to an end.

D: What have you got planned for the final night then? The list of performers and DJs must read like a who's who.

M: Yes, the DJs are Mike Evans, Kista, Mr Stoj, Courtney, Carmine Romano, Peter McNamara, Tony Svehla and James Fraser. Then we've got Zowie Knox's massive 3am show, and the UK's Alison Limerick does a live p.a. of 'Where Love Lives' at 2am.

Come and say farewell to a Melbourne institution and relive all the good times with the cream of Melbourne's DJs playing through one of the best sound systems in town.
