Kirribilli Markets

Pre-loved designer bargains on the north shore
Word to the wise: Arrive at 8.30am sharp to bag the best bargains – it'll be slim pickings after 11am.

Noteworthy for: This exclusive north shore suburb also hosts Australia's Prime Ministerial residence, Kirribilli House.
Every fourth Saturday of each month from January to November and on the first and third Saturdays of December, Sydney's fashion set spring clean their wardrobes here to the delight of bargain hunters city-wide. With 120 stalls offering new or second-hand fashion and accessories, antiques and bric-a-brac, it's the perfect place to pick up a pre-loved designer dress or two for peanuts.

On the second Sunday of each month, the site hosts a maker's market, offering everything from original paintings to ceramics, millinery to fresh flowers, food, glassware and fashion.
