Mega Market promises blend of art, vintage and records

Pictured, from left,  Rhonda Billett from I Am Nambour and Aaron Borg from Bad Habit Records are joining forces for the Mega Market day. Steve Hadlow, right, will also be there with his stunning 1965 Ford Falcon.

An art show, a vintage market, a mini-record fair, a preloved, pre-owned treasure trove and a handmade and homemade alley full of stall holders.

That is what you can expect in Nambour this Sunday April 21 along with a few very special  old cars gracing the streets throughout the morning.  

It’s all part of a “Mega Market Sunday” from 9am to noon across two locations:  Bad Habit Records area in Howard Street and the Council Forecourt in Bury St. 

“The two locations will be filled with only the best Nambour Sunday market vibes,” explained organiser Rhonda Billett. 

“As it’s the 3rd Sunday of the month it’s our regular Sunday Nambour Rummagers Market but this time we’re joined by the team from Bad Habit Records Nambour for their First Birthday community celebration comprising of an Art Show, Vintage Market and a Mini Record Fair.

“We would love everyone to come along, bring your market basket, grab a coffee from your favourite hinterland cafe and have a little Sunday morning fun and follow up with lunch in one of our awesome Nambour eateries.”  

The Rummagers Market will set up in the Council Forecourt. A few of Nambour’s vintage cars will cruise between venues to add a little fun and colour to the occasion.   

“We called it a Mega Market because of the collaboration and all of the wonderful locals who will help make up the event for Nambour.”

Stall sites are still available via messaging the Nambour Rummagers Market or on Instagram or Facebook.

The event is organised by I am Nambour, Nambour Tram Co, Bad Habit Records, Friday Night Nambour and Sunshine Coast Council.
