Speciality:

Following the huge success of our inaugural event last December, we’re happy as punch to be putting on another Pop Up Market showcasing a varied but finely curated spectrum of emerging makers and designers. Across the two days, you’ll see over 20 stalls with tonnes of handmade items on offer including apparel, cards, ceramics, homewares, jewellery and prints. Some of our favourite stalls include Above The Canopy’s quirky knitted necklaces, the sweet as punch jewellery from Little Dirty Dish, Molly Coombs Marr’s Australiana-themed accessories [bottom image] and Parva’s all natural and locally made skincare range.

Additionally, we’ve got some of Sydney’s finest DJs on the ones and twos all day on Saturday, and the fantastic Bec Sandridge [below] doing a live set in the performance room on Sunday. We’re utilising the entire space this time round – if you were lucky enough to nab a ticket before we sold out, we may even see you on the rooftop for our floral and clay workshops.

The crowd:

Whilst our market-goers are typically in the 20-35 age bracket, there’s something for every age bracket, whether you’re a tiny tot or silver fox. We always like to see lots of locals too; it’s great to see we have such support from our neighbours!

Find a bargain:

One of the (many) fabulous things about emerging artists and designers is you can get those warm fuzzy ‘supporting local creatives’ feels for not much change at all. If we only had $10 to spend, we’d treat ourselves to a very cute and tongue-in-cheek Not All Ramen patch from Crafts And Rec [main image].

What’s the fuel?

There is a bar and café at the venue, with wines from Cake Wines, ice cold beers, coffee and snacks. There’ll also be a mobile sushi cart from Kyandi.
