Warburton Valley Market

Sunday, 5th April, 2026

Unfortunately the decision has had to be made to cancel the Warburton Valley Market on Sunday April 5th.

As it is Easter Sunday, The Warburton Arts Centre won’t be open and it is too difficult to run the market without access to the building.

However, we’re still taking stall applications for Ecotopia Festival, Saturday 28th March, 1-6pm!

Please email events@ecoss.org.au if you’d like a stall.

Our next Warburton Valley Market will be on Sunday 3rd May…

Have a relaxing and enjoyable Easter break!
