This popular market showcases Indigenous makers, artists and food purveyors

Sydney’s Blak Markets creates a space for everyone to engage with the oldest continuing culture in the world. See traditional entertainment and ceremony and browse stalls spruiking a range of locally made arts, crafts and food from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stallholders. From native plants to award-winning jewellery, silk scarves, and ethically sourced bush foods, there’s an eclectic mix to peruse.

The festival event returns to the beautiful Bare Island at La Perouse on Sunday, February 13, kicking off from 10am with a Welcome to Country, smoking ceremony and performances from 11am. You can see traditional dance performances by Djiriba Waagura as well as singing by artist Nadeena Dixon.


Get your coins ready, entry is $2.50 (children under five are free), and all proceeds raised go towards employing local Indigenous youth. This is a Covid-safe event, and all attendees are required to check in via QR codes at the gate.

"The Blak Markets are a great chance to buy authentic gifts knowing that 100 per cent of the profits go back into Aboriginal communities," says market manager Ash Little.

The Markets usually take place bi-monthly at Bare Island, set on the picturesque point of La Perouse within the Kamay-Botany Bay National Park, an area which is usually only open for tours. It's a great place to teach the kids about Indigenous culture. You can always expect a smoking ceremony, workshops in weaving, art and bushfood, and musical performances.
