QUAINT VILLAGE MARKET

AS autumn settles in over the Yarra Valley, the quaint village of Yarra Glen takes on an almost mystical quality, and our Yarra Glen Racecourse Market is a sight to behold. Held on the first Sunday of the month from 9am-2pm during the autumn months, you can come and meet the artists, creators, designers and craftspeople behind the selection of premium quality goods on display. Picture foggy mornings, rolling hills, hot drinks and friendly people ready to wish you a good day.

A good day is something we can guarantee from the moment you arrive at Yarra Glen where you can then take a few hours to explore and wander the racecourse grounds to absorb the sights, sounds and smells of a thriving country craft and food market. Take the time to soak up the atmosphere and breathe in that clean, fresh air away from the busyness of suburban life. Countless stallholders will line the open paths of this market, featuring a selection of unique jewellery, art, clothing, toys, outdoor furniture, gourmet food and much, much more. It’s the perfect place to pick up something special for Mother’s Day, or some hand-knitted essentials to prepare for the cooler months, or just a space to meet up with friends. Live music will keep you entertained as you browse, and our street food sellers will make sure you’re well fed.
