Vintage Market DOUBLE WHAMMY!! This Sunday 18 October.
The weather is set to clear (just an odd shower in the morning) for Alberton's 3rd annual Vintage Market Day on Sunday! Come along to find a vintage, retro or antique treasure! There will be furniture painting demos, a raffle, old-fashioned games, Mr Johnny Green's mobile egg-cup museum, bakery stall, coffee, crepes and gelato!
Head to Balmoral's super Central Flea Market run by the folks at Junk & Disorderly to rummage for a bargain beforehand. A great selection of stalls and quite different so make sure to visit both!
Central Flea is at 8am-1pm, Alberton Vintage Market Day 11am-3pm
