Roleystone Markets, one of Perth's favourite markets, returns on Sunday 4 December with a Christmas extravaganza - featuring a joyous celebration of exciting stallholders, festive family entertainment and wonderful kids activities!
Get into the spirit of Christmas and come along with the whole family from 3.00 pm to 8.00 pm and enjoy a leisurely Sunday afternoon in the delightful township of Roleystone. This hidden treasure is just 40 minutes from the CBD but it's a world away, boasting stunning scenery, a scenic drive and a vibrant village town centre.
Climbing the Perth Hills, through the stunning orchards and the lush valley will certainly not disappoint and neither will the destination of Cross Park, which will be transformed into a bustling marketplace. Situated on a huge oval and surrounded by shady trees, this large grassed area offers an inviting, spacious and protective bushland setting.
Over the past 9 years, Roleystone Markets has gained a well-deserved reputation for being one of the best markets in the region and has regularly been included in the top 10 must-visit lists!
Organisers have carefully curated a fabulous selection of stallholders that will be well-positioned around the park. Discover a diverse range of excellent quality, handmade products by local makers, creators and artisans and producers offering locally grown gourmet delights.
Wherever you turn, you are sure to be pleased by what's on offer! Choose from woodwork chopping boards, glass platters, bowls, light panels, local pottery, jams, sweets, olives, cards, exotic soap products, unique jewellery, glittering crystals, distinctive candles, handbags and so much more!
It's the perfect place to purchase thoughtful gifts for loved ones and importantly, there will be no more than three stalls selling the same product and absolutely no generic imported products. With a clear focus on quality and supporting the local community, Roleystone Market stands out from other community markets and maintains its reputation as a 'Destination Market'.
