Residents and visitors are invited to join us for the biggest Golden Plains Twilight Market to date on Thursday 14 December from 4 to 9pm at the Bannockburn Heart, corner of Milton, Byron and High Streets, Bannockburn.

Thanks to our sponsors Beyond the Valley, GPG Naturgy Group, Josco Civil, Ramsey Property Group, Golden Plains Storage by Murrell Group and Stockdale & Leggo Bannockburn, the Bannockburn Heart will undergo a vibrant transformation. Experience a lively plaza with diverse stallholders offering delicious food, exquisite crafts, live music, free activities and more.

An extension of the popular monthly Golden Plains Farmers’ Market, the Twilight Market is a one-stop shop for everyone’s Christmas needs, with over 90 stallholders that will feature a vibrant array of local vendors and artisans, showcasing their culinary dishes plus arts and crafts.

There will also be live performances by Kieran Tobin and local Bannockburn student performers, free activities for the kids including face painting, balloon twisting, a jumping castle, animal farm, and a special visit from Santa with the CFA. 

Mayor Cr Brett Cunningham encouraged residents and visitors to head to the Twilight Market for a fun-filled evening.

This year’s Twilight Market is set to be bigger than ever with over 90 stallholders set to appear, compared to 47 in 2020. We’re grateful for all the support the Twilight Market has received over the years that has allowed this number to almost double,” Cr Cunningham said. 

By visiting and shopping at the Golden Plains Twilight Market, you’re helping our local growers and makers and supporting our local economy this festive season,” he said.  

I encourage everyone to pop down to the market and pick up those last-minute Christmas gifts for your loved ones, all while enjoying live music, a bite to eat and a fun evening out for the whole family.
