Overview

Whether you're on the lookout for some wicked vintage clothes or just want to stuff your face full of hot jam doughnuts, the Camberwell Sunday Market is the place to go — and has been for 40 years now. Yep, one of Australia's most beloved second-hand shopping spots is celebrating its ruby anniversary. There's never been a better time to find a bargain.

The market has certainly come a long way since 1976, when stallholders brought in a grand total of $531. Since then, it's grown into a full-blown local institution, raising more than $15 million for community and humanitarian charities along the way.

This Sunday's edition will feature everything you've come to love about the iconic market, from food vendors to live buskers and more than 350 stalls. Regulars will know the trick is to get there nice and early, with the proverbial doors opening at the crack of dawn.
