About this market

Mangrove Mountain Country Fair is a once-a-year community event on the corner of Wisemans Ferry Road and Waratah Road, Mangrove Mountain, organised entirely by volunteers on the Mangrove Mountain & Districts Country Fair Committee. The 2026 fair is confirmed for Saturday 17 October, 9am to 3pm.

A fair built by the community it serves

More than 19 local organisations take part, including schools, Girl Guides, Scouts, the Rural Fire Service, CWA branches, churches and sporting clubs, each running its own stall or activity. The program mixes classic country-fair fare, scones, jams and preserves, craft stalls and a friendship farm, with a billy cart derby known as "Mountain Mayhem" and an annual Contemporary Art Award. The committee describes the fair as a product of the community, by the community, and every dollar of profit goes back to local community organisations.

Good to know before you go

Because this is an annual fair rather than a weekly market, the single confirmed date each year is the one to plan around. The committee meets monthly at the Mangrove Mountain Union Church and can be reached through the fair's volunteer contact line for stallholder or general enquiries.

Did you know?

The fair runs its own annual Contemporary Art Award alongside the more traditional country-fair program of stalls, food and a billy cart derby nicknamed "Mountain Mayhem".

With pony rides, live entertainment and a full slate of community-group stalls, it is built as a family day out as much as a shopping trip, and every stall on-site is run by a local volunteer group rather than a commercial trader.
