Carseldine Markets, North Brisbane’s premier farmers and artisan haven, is commemorating a decade of bringing the community together over scrumptious treats and an unparalleled market experience.
This Saturday, the 25th of May 2024, the vibrant market will host a grand birthday celebration, complete with live entertainment, delectable birthday cakes, and an array of festivities guaranteed to delight visitors of all ages.
The festivities will commence at 9:00 a.m. with an official cake-cutting ceremony, setting the stage for a day filled with joy and revelry.
Entertaining Extravaganza
The entertainment lineup promises to be a crowd-pleaser, featuring the infectious energy of the Obisun Band, finalists on “Australia’s Got Talent,” who will have the morning crowd dancing to their uplifting vibes.
Traditional Japanese drummers will add a touch of cultural flair, while jumping castles and competitions will keep the little ones enthralled.
“Roll out those picnic blankets because we are in for a morning of fun in the sun with live birthday entertainment for the whole family,” the organisers excitedly announced.
A Decade of Remarkable Achievements
As the Carseldine Markets commemorates its 10th anniversary, the impressive statistics paint a picture of a community-driven initiative that has flourished over the years. With 500 drool-worthy markets since it began, the venue has supported over 1,000 small businesses and hosted 31 events, including seven years of Barktoberfest and nine years of the Carseldine Christmas Twilight Markets.
The markets have welcomed an astonishing 3,500 furry visitors, over 300,000 customers, and facilitated the sale of 1 million kilos of fresh, local produce. Moreover, their commitment to sustainability has led to the saving of over 5,000 plastic bags and the staging of 700 live performances.
A Commitment to Giving Back
Beyond fostering a vibrant community hub, the Carseldine Markets have consistently dedicated their efforts to supporting various charitable causes. From raising funds for Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, the RSPCA, and the Aspley Care Winter Appeal, to supporting the Mater Chicks in Pink initiative, the market’s impact extends far beyond its physical boundaries.
As the Carseldine Markets celebrates this momentous occasion, visitors are invited to join in the festivities, indulge in farm-fresh produce, gourmet delights, and handmade treasures from over 130 vendors. With free parking, free entry, and an abundance of prizes and giveaways, including complimentary Carseldine Tote Bags for the first 30 visitors, this event is not to be missed.
