The Sydney Good Food & Wine Show Christmas Markets
Stock up on Christmas gifts for all the foodies in your life at this massive seasonal market featuring stalls from more than 150 different local producers.
Overview
Supermarket shelves are filling with panettone and mince pies, department shop windows are being decked out with festive displays and high streets across the city are being strung with lights and baubles. It may only be November, but yuletide is already upon us and with it, 'tis the season for Christmas markets in all their wondrous forms.
Any Sydneysiders in search of gifts for the foodies in their lives should circle November 22–24 on their calendars. Over three days, The Sydney Good Food & Wine Show Christmas Markets will take over Carriageworks in South Eveleigh with all manner of delicious stalls, seasonal treats, handcrafted gifts and artisanal goods.
A host of celebrity chefs — including pastry chef and chocolatier Kirsten Tibballs, Smelly Cheese Co. founder Valérie Henbest, cookbook author Steph de Souza, Great Australian Bake Off star Elliot Styche and My Kitchen Rules winner Sammy Jakubiak — will also be delivering live cooking demonstrations, so you can learn the professional tips and tricks that'll make cooking your festive feast a piece of (Christmas) cake.
With the wares of more than 150 local producers to peruse, there will be plenty of opportunities to sip and sample all kinds of treats from Christmas puddings to holiday-themed cocktails, all while soaking up a buzzy atmosphere and festive tunes. And thanks to The Smith Family Wrapping station, where volunteers from the Voice, Interests and Education of Women Club will be on hand to wrap your goodies, you can leave the markets with all your gifts ready to place under the tree. All funds raised from the station will go towards providing learning support for Australian children living in poverty.
