Community eager for Christmas market in Cooroy

Christmas in Cooroy will be bigger and better than ever this year with Cooroy Future Group hosting a community Christmas market at Butter Factory Arts Centre (BFAC).

At 4pm on 10 December, the carpark and front lawn will transform into a Christmas wonderland, hosting 50 market stalls.

There will be free, live music with two local bands,; Soul Tree Union and Nizami, who will be filling the night market with beautiful tunes from 4pm – 9pm.

A special act for the kids, featuring Larrikin Puppets, will give a wildly funny free show at 5pm on the lawn out the front of the Butter Factory.

Shop local and support the creative community by finding a unique, handmade gift for a loved one this Christmas.

The BFAC annual Christmas pottery market has expanded to include all creatives and has become an artisan and pottery combined Christmas Market, making it the perfect place for your Christmas shopping.

There will be food trucks plus a pop-up bar, so you can replenish your energy before browsing the 50 stalls at the Christmas market.

The annual Australian Pottery Throwdown will also be on show at the Christmas Market, happening in the BFAC pottery Studio, which is located to the left of the Butter Factory building.

There will be eight experienced potters demonstrating wheel throwing and creating masterpieces in front of a live audience, from 5pm in the Pottery Studio.

Get your creative fill all before dusk when the annual Christmas tree lighting occurs at 7pm in the town centre, thanks to the Cooroy Chamber of Commerce.

This event is free and family-friendly with plenty of magical and exciting performances to enjoy. Don’t miss this opportunity to see the local vibrant creative artisans and support them by taking home one-of-a-kind Christmas gift.
