Event details
Here's your chance to uncover unique treasures and support local creativity. Hosted by Nambour institution Bad Habit Records, this eclectic marketplace transforms the Old Ambo and spills into the street from 9am to 3pm. Browse stalls brimming with handmade art, vinyl, ceramics, textiles, and quirky curios – all at accessible prices, crafted by Sunshine Coast makers.
But it’s more than a market – it’s a creative collision. While you shop, experience Namba Narrates, a dynamic poetry showcase on the adjacent Ramp stage featuring some 15 diverse voices, including Devi Telfer, Laurita Gorman, and Ben Burns.
Add the free Namba Concrete Canvas tour, uncovering hidden street art gems, and you’ve got a public holiday brimming with rhythm, colour, and connection. Come curious, leave inspired – Namba Artist Market is your big day out of quirky goodness and an opportunity to explore the creative brilliance of this vibrant hinterland town.
