Rock ‘n’ Roll & Alternative Market Big Weekender

Overview

Shuffling through a prestige university in a single file isn't particularly rock, but the Sydney Rock 'n' Roll & Alternative Market wants you to do it anyway. Set over February 8 and 9, the markets are back in 2014 for their Big Weekender with more than 80 stallholders selling alternative and vintage clothing, jewellery, accessories, vinyl, posters, cult DVDs, comics, art, homewares, collectables and, could you believe it, more.

But with The Rechords, Mojo Juju, The Milky Bar Kids and tonnes more scoring your day, it isn't just a market this time around. There'll even be retro hair and make-up stylists, a traditional barber, and vintage and classic vehicle displays from Reel Wheels and Sydney Cafe Racers & the Ardly Normal Scooter Crew.

Spread over three levels and across two courtyards at the University of Sydney's Manning Bar, the Sydney Rock 'n' Roll & Alternative Market has grown since its humble beginnings in Tempe. With $5 entry, even those who've emptied their purses on a Buick LeSabre can afford to pay a visit.
