Who would have known that this iconic place will be holding their first ever Garage Sale Trail in the forecourt of Hyde Park Barracks Museum ?


This place, littered with history, was built in 1819 to accommodate and provide food and clothing to men and boys convicted with crimes. The main dormitory in 1848 also held the newly arrived female immigrants and in 1862, a separate wards for destitute women were added and the Barracks became known as the Hyde Park Asylum.

But amidst the amazing history of this place, on Saturday 26 October, from 10.00am to 3.00pm, the gates of the Museum will be open to the public, free of charge, to hold the first Garage Sale Trail in the forecourt of Hyde Park Barracks.


Garage Sale Trail is a local event that started four years ago in someone's backyard at Bondi Beach. It has become a national Australian event that organises communities around Australia to hold garage sales.


It's another great day to explore the surroundings of the Museum, browse the stalls and perhaps stumble into something unusual, quirky and cheap. Amazing pre-loved interesting items; all the while, be entertained with some live music in the background, enjoy sumptuous food and drinks on offer and enjoy free entry to the World Heritage listed Hyde Park Barracks Museum.


Bring your loved ones and enjoy the day. Remember - someone else's trash could be your treasure.
