The Warburton Waterwheel’s annual Christmas Market is making its return at the start of December, proving the perfect opportunity to grab somegifts and get into the festive spirit.
The market will be held on Friday 6 December from 4pm to 8pm out the front, back and side of the Warburton Waterwheel with plenty of local stallholders already on board.
Warburton Waterwheel Coordinator Michele Ostherhoudt said it looks like they are going to be bursting with stalls, which is quite exciting.
“A wide variety of crafts and gifts of all types, plus some local organisations promoting their cause, we’ll have stalls down on the grass in front of the building, the decks surrounding it, as well as up in the arena on the high side of the Waterwheel, plus we will have our ‘food court’ again around the back side and up in the parking area off Station Road and near the Cog Café,” she said.
“We are excited this year to have the Cog Café staying open late to offer their delicious toasties, pastries and other freshly prepared food, plus we have Koha Community Café back, our local favourite food van Mountain Tucker, the Juicy Momo offering Tibetan and Himalayan delights and I’ve also invited the ice cream truck to pop by and I know several stall holders will be offering biscuits and other nibbles.”
The busking van will also be making a return and anyone interested in performing can contact Ms Osterhoudt at 03 5966 9600, 0458 274 224 or wwcoordinator@upperyarra.net.au to enquire about availability.
The Warburton Waterwheel can be found at 3400 Warburton Highway, Warburton, right in the centre of town. If you struggle to find a park alongside the highway other parking can be found at the Warburton Recreation Reserve, Thomas Avenue, Dammans Road across the river or the ADRA Redwood Centre’s overfill parking may be opened.
