Darlington Community Market is being held Sunday September 15th. The setting is the picturesque Darlington State School in the Lost World Valley - Nestled at the foothills of the Border Ranges and Lamington National Park. There could not be a better place to introduce the family to a genuine Country experience and enjoy the markets that have become an anticipated event in their own right.

The markets hold the theme of home grown, homemade, handmade, local, organic and fair trade. The quality on offer is assured and the opportunity to find something truly unique is genuine.

The Day includes live music from band “Griffin County”, mouth watering food from award winning Watty Woo and their Low N Slow American BBQ, old fashioned Country Games and Novelty Races, baby animal petting zoo, face painting and of course our Famous Darlington Duck Race!

Take time out with the family and experience a wide armed country welcome in Darlington on September 15th. You will be helping us to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis Queensland and go home with some great family memories and that little something from the markets you know won’t be found somewhere else. We guarantee it won't be your last visit!
