The first Newstead market for 2026 will be on Saturday 21st March, at the Newstead Park in Lyons Street, between 8.30 am and 1 pm.     It’s a great place to find local produce, garden plants and to catch up with the local community.

Fire safety information and advice from CFA members – pop down and have a chat.

Here are some of the things on offer at the market:

  • CFA BBQ offering sausages, burgers and our famed egg and bacon rolls, as well as tea, coffee and a selection of cold drinks.
  • CFA Trash and Treasure stall, selling donated items, including kitchen ware, collectables, lots of books, hardware, tools and children’s toys.  Most items are not priced – just make us an offer and take home a bargain.   All funds raised go to support the Newstead fire brigade.
