ST ALBANS VILLAGE MARKET
Easter Sunday | 10am – 2pm Chocolate Eggs & Easter Bunnies Everywhere! Massive Easter Egg Hunt!
Calling children of all ages! Visit every stallholder and explore the entire market site to claim your Easter reward. Enjoy a fantastic day out with friends and family in historic St Albans – just 90 minutes from Sydney, the Central Coast, and the Blue Mountains. Step back in time to a quieter, more peaceful era. Getting There If you’ re travelling from Sydney, take in the breathtaking views of the valley before descending into Wisemans Ferry. Turn left past the Police Station, continue for 200m, and board the Webbs Creek Ferry – it operates 24 / 7 and is free of charge.
To ensure a smooth journey, set your GPS to include ferry routes. Once across
the river, enjoy a scenic 21km drive along the Macdonald River to the village of St Albans. Surrounded by farmland and wilderness, you’ ll feel as though time has stood still. The region’ s rich history and natural beauty make St Albans an idyllic destination. A Perfect Family Day Out Opposite the market, there’ s a fantastic children’ s playground, and the village is home to two fully licensed local favourites – the iconic, convict-built Settlers Arms Inn and the charming Pickled Wombat Café. Escape the hustle and bustle of suburban life and discover the charm of this peaceful village. www. stalbansvillagemarket. com. au
