The Creators Market
A touring designer-made and handmade market that pops up at 10 Balcombe Road, Mentone.
Also known as Creators Market.
About this market
The Creators Market brings its touring line-up of Victorian designers and handmade-goods makers to 10 Balcombe Road in Mentone, a warehouse and coffee-shop space tucked into the suburb's light-industrial pocket rather than the main shopping strip. Free entry and easy parking make it a low-friction stop for a Saturday morning browse.
What's on the stalls
Stallholders are curated around genuinely handmade and designer-made goods: jewellery, fashion pieces, candles, homewares, sweet treats and condiments, all made or grown by the person serving the stall rather than resold. The market has run at this address for several years and remains active, with a themed line-up confirmed as trading in the Melbourne and Geelong region as recently as early September 2026.

Good to know before you go
Entry is free and trading typically runs on a Saturday. Because The Creators Market tours between several towns rather than setting up in Mentone every week, dates here are periodic, not weekly, so it is worth checking the market's Instagram or Facebook page for the next confirmed Mentone date before planning a visit.
The Creators Market is a touring brand rather than a single fixed market: the same curated line-up of stallholders also sets up in Bendigo, Shepparton, Dromana and Castlemaine, with Mentone as one of its regular Melbourne-area stops.
The Mentone stop sits alongside the market's other regional dates in Bendigo, Shepparton, Dromana and Castlemaine, so the same stallholder line-up is worth following if you also spend time in any of those towns.
