The Handmade Expo is back in Nicholas Street Precinct for the first time in 2021 this March.
The popular handmade markets will pop up at Tulmur Place in the Nicholas Street Precinct at Ipswich Central on Saturday, 13 March from 9am to 1pm.
It’s the first of a regular program of markets in the city’s revitalised CBD in 2021, with the Nicholas Street Precinct becoming the new home of the monthly Ipswich Handmade Expo.
Ipswich residents got a taste of the markets last year, with more than 15,000 people checking out the Handmade Expo stalls at the opening of Tulmur Place in late November.
With more than 100 handmade stalls, face painting, the fabulous water play area and food trucks, the upcoming Handmade Expo is the perfect family day out.
Here’s a sneak peek at what you can look forward to next weekend (13 March).
