Barangaroo Artisan Market

A Vibrant Waterfront Celebration in Sydney

Sydney’s iconic harbourfront is set to sparkle with creativity and community spirit as the Barangaroo Artisan Market returns this Mother’s Day weekend. Taking place on Saturday 9 May, this much-loved annual event will once again transform The Streets of Barangaroo into a lively open-air marketplace.

Held in partnership with International Towers Sydney and Barangaroo Sydney, the event marks its fifth year as a standout attraction on the Sydney events calendar. With free entry and a stunning harbour backdrop, it is the perfect way to celebrate Mother’s Day while enjoying one of the city’s most scenic precincts.

Discover Unique Artisan Gifts and Local Creations

Running from 10am to 3pm, the market will feature more than 70 artisan stallholders offering a carefully curated selection of locally made products. Visitors can browse everything from handcrafted jewellery and ceramics to textiles, homewares, art and thoughtful gifts.

Highlights include the intricate designs of Miss Chopsticks Origami Jewellery, where traditional Japanese washi paper is transformed into delicate wearable art. Indigiearth presents a rich collection of native Australian foods and botanicals, ethically sourced from Aboriginal communities. Eliza Jade Candles offers eco-friendly fragrances crafted from coconut soy wax, while 2nd Vie showcases sustainable style through repurposed fabric creations.

Sustainability also takes centre stage with Banish, focused on responsible recycling, and Sorella Cacao, producing small-batch chocolate using local ingredients and environmentally conscious packaging. Together, these stallholders reflect a growing movement towards mindful, locally driven shopping experiences.

Live Entertainment and Family Fun by the Harbour

Beyond shopping, the Barangaroo Artisan Market delivers a full day of entertainment designed for all ages. A vibrant program of live music, roving performers and interactive experiences ensures there is something happening at every turn.

This year’s line-up features progressive and deep house duo YDKR, alongside DJ and experimental saxophonist Gab Zak, creating a lively soundtrack for the day. The streets will come alive with colourful performers, including stilt walkers, roller skaters, hula hoop artists, and a festive mariachi band with dancers.

Families can enjoy interactive attractions such as a photo booth, enchanting mermaid performers, and giant bouncing kangaroos, making the event as engaging for children as it is for adults.
