Behind every Gift Fair is months of planning, thoughtful decisions and a passion for supporting local businesses.

Carryn is currently finalising the 2026 exhibitor line-up, carefully reviewing each application to create a Gift Fair that's inspiring, diverse and full of beautiful discoveries.

Every purchase has the power to make a difference.

On Mandela Day, we're reminded that even the smallest actions can create lasting impact.

At The Gift Fair, every purchase tells a story. Behind every handcrafted product, delicious treat, or beautifully designed gift is a local entrepreneur, a family business, a dream, and countless hours of dedication.

For 17 years, we've celebrated the incredible people who create, innovate and bring our event to life.

This Mandela Day, let's continue to support local, celebrate creativity, and remember that choosing local is one small way we can all make a difference.

"It is in your hands to make a better world for all who live in it." – Nelson Mandela

There are markets...
..and then there's The Gift Fair.

For 17 years, we've watched friendships grow, family traditions begin, and shoppers discover brands they return to year after year.

It's where Christmas lists get longer, "just one more look" turns into another shopping bag, and local businesses become household favourites.

This isn't just somewhere you come to shop.

It's where you discover.
It's where you connect.
It's where the festive season begins.
For some, it's shopping. For us, it's a tradition.
