About this market

Wantirna Farmers and Makers Market takes over the grounds of Wantirna Primary School on the third Sunday of each month, from February to December. Its motto, 'Bake it! Make it! Grow it!', sums up the stall mix: food products and handmade artisan goods from local small businesses and producers.

An indoor and outdoor market in Wantirna South

The market runs both indoors and outdoors. The stalls lean towards home bakers, makers and small growers, and the organisers ask shoppers to support local producers and small businesses.

The school sits at 120 Mountain Highway in Wantirna South, a suburb 25 km east of the Melbourne CBD in the City of Knox. It borders the cities of Whitehorse and Monash, which puts the market within reach of several eastern suburbs. Wantirna South had a population of 20,754 at the 2021 census. Event listings show the market trading on third Sundays through 2024, including 15 September and 15 December, and the latest listing at the time of writing gave Sunday 18 October 2026 as the next date.

Before you go

Trading hours are 8am to 1pm on the third Sunday, so aim for the first hour if you want the best choice from the baking and produce stalls. Entry is free according to the Melbourne Playgrounds listing, though it is worth carrying some cash for the stalls and a bag for your shopping.

Dogs are welcome on a lead, and the market is held on the school grounds both indoors and outdoors. The market posts news on its Facebook page and on an Instagram account with more than 100 posts, and it is worth checking them because there is no market in January and the Sunday can be easy to miss.

Did you know?

The market takes January off, so it runs 11 months of the year, February to December.

The market ends at 1pm, so plan to arrive in the morning rather than the afternoon.
