About this market
On the Border Community Market brings its boutique market series across the river to Albury's Hovell Tree Park, a leafy riverside green space a short stroll from the CBD. The Hovell Tree edition runs a handful of select Sundays each year, with curated handmade and artisan stalls, gourmet food, coffee, and live music in a relaxed open-air setting. Families are well looked after, with kids' activities including Hay Ho Animal Nursery, Beechworth Pony Rides, and face painting alongside the park's playground. The market runs rain, hail or shine. Hovell Tree Park also has a Changing Places accessible bathroom, which makes the venue more welcoming for visitors with high support needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly is the market held?
At Hovell Tree Park, corner of Hume Street and Wodonga Place, South Albury - a short walk from the Albury CBD and close to Noreuil Park Foreshore.
Does the market run if it rains?
Yes - the market runs rain, hail or shine. Exceptions are made only in genuinely unsafe conditions (e.g. electrical storms or heavy rain all day), in which case organisers communicate via their Facebook page. Stall holders book at their own risk and no refunds are issued for weather.
Is there electricity for stalls at Hovell Tree?
No - there is no mains electricity at Hovell Tree Park. Stallholders who require power must bring their own generator and notify organisers in advance for mapping purposes.
How do I apply for a stall?
Applications are accepted via the online form at onthebordercommunitymarket.com.au. Successful applicants receive an invoice by email. A single 3x3m site is $50, double 6x3m is $100, and triple 9x3m is $150. Food sellers must hold Public Liability Insurance and register with Albury City Council (free and straightforward via the council website).
Is there accessible parking or toilets nearby?
Street parking is available around the park. Hovell Tree Park has a Changing Places accessible toilet - larger than a standard accessible bathroom, with a height-adjustable change table, ceiling hoist, and automatic door. It is accessible with a Master Locksmiths Access Key (MLAK) 24 hours a day.
Is this the same as the Junction Square Wodonga market?
No - On the Border Community Market runs a separate series at Junction Square in Wodonga (VIC). The Hovell Tree Park series is the Albury (NSW) edition and has its own dates and application form.
