Finders Keepers Markets
"Finders keepers, losers weepers" used to be a well-known singing refrain in every Aussie schoolyard, but at the Hordern Pavilion this Christmas, nobody (we hope) will be crying, because the Finders Keepers Markets is returning to Sydney and, frankly, the whole thing looks downright delightful. From Friday, December 8 to Sunday, December 10, the Hordern Pavilion will house Australia’s most consciously-curated markets, with Sydney playing host to more than 170 small creative businesses from NSW and across the country. This three-day market is all about celebrating creative local business – punters will be able to pick up hand-made ceramics, slow fashion, jewellery, homewares, original art and much, much more from the market’s huge array of stalls. It’s the perfect place to get a head start on your Christmas shopping and pick up a few gifts for yourself, too. Take a break from shopping with a bevvy from the Finders Keepers’ summer bar, sip on free cold filter coffee from Allpress Espresso and groove to live sets from local DJs. There will also be fabulous workshops run by the Finders Keepers Indigenous Program, plus colourful craft activities running all weekend for kids and adults alike. The Finders Keepers Markets will be open from 4pm to 9pm on Friday, and from 10am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday. Entry costs $6, and can be bought at the door cashless, or booked in ahead of time by clicking right here. Kids under 13 can come in for free. RECOMMENDED: Want more? Here are the
