To market, to market

It’s beginning to look a lot like market season.

Stallholders and visitors are looking forward to the opening of the Aireys Inlet Market on Sunday 9 October.

One the most loved and eclectic markets along the Surf Coast, the Aireys Inlet Market features a hand-picked selection of the region’s best arts, handcrafted goods, street food, gourmet treats and local produce.

“We are excited to be able to offer local artisans, creators and growers the opportunity to be a part of the Aireys Inlet market community,” market administrator Fay Valcanis said.

“The market has a strong community essence that allows stallholders to connect with new and existing customers and promote the best of the region.”

The market caters for 60 stallholders who are predominantly from the local surrounds. “Around 20 percent of stalls are new to the Aireys Inlet Market, and the remainder are regulars, which helps to ensure market-goers are presented with a mix of fresh creativity, along with old favourites,” Ms Valcanis said.

“We are excited to partner with the Aireys Inlet Primary School Fair on Saturday 29 October for a mega market/fair experience.”

From bespoke ceramics to handcrafted clothing, specialty teas, gluten-free donuts, plants, woodwork, local cheeses and art,the market caters for a wide variety of products making it an ideal day out to browse, buy or meet up for a coffee with friends.

Aireys Inlet Market operates from the Aireys Inlet Community Hall, 6 Great Ocean Road, Aireys Inlet.

Upcoming market dates are October 9 and 29 and November 20.
