Not all market places are areas, the Rocks Markets in Sydney closes
the road and has them located on the road.

I realise things may not be 100% what you are used to, they are not
100% what we are used to in Australia but where possible we try to
adapt UK tags to Australian situations and have a page on how to
convert from UK english to Australian english.

In this case I'm guessing you could probably extend the existing
marketplace tag with a sub-tag, rather than a new key/value pair, eg:
amenity=marketplace
marketplace=bazaar
