About this market
Sunset Markets Norah Head is a curated coastal twilight market held at Mazlin Reserve, right on the water at Norah Head on the NSW Central Coast. Running from late afternoon into the evening, the market is timed to catch the last of the golden hour - ocean breezes, fairy lights overhead, and the smell of sizzling street food all combining into something genuinely hard to rush. Stalls are hand-picked and lean into coastal lifestyle: artisan makers, handmade homewares, candles, ceramics, coastal fashion, and gifts sit alongside a rotating lineup of gourmet food vendors offering things like wood-fired pizza, hand-rolled churros, burgers, real tacos, and plant-based treats. The vibe is relaxed and community-focused - there's seating on site, but regulars bring picnic rugs to spread out on the reserve. Music shifts each month between local DJs and acoustic acts. Kids' craft workshops and face painting feature at some events, making it a genuine family outing rather than just a browse-and-buy market. The 2026 Norah Head season runs across four Saturday evenings: 5 September, 3 October (long weekend), 7 November, and 5 December.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is entry free?
Yes, entry to Sunset Markets Norah Head is free for all visitors.
Should I bring a chair or picnic rug?
There is some seating available on site, but the organisers recommend bringing a picnic rug so you can relax on the reserve and enjoy the view.
What kind of food is available?
Each event features a rotating selection of gourmet food vendors - past stalls have included burgers, real tacos, wood-fired pizza, hand-rolled churros, cinnamon scrolls, marshmallows, and plant-based options.
Is there live music?
Yes, each market features either a local DJ or acoustic musicians - the lineup rotates month to month, so check the Sunset Markets Instagram for updates closer to each date.
Are kids welcome?
Yes. The market is family-friendly and some events include kids craft workshops. The open reserve setting is easy with a pram.
I want to trade - how do I apply for a stall?
Applications are open via the stallholder form at sunsetmarkets.com.au. Stallholders require a white or professionally branded 3x3 marquee, 20 kg weights per leg, and public liability insurance of $20 million. There is no power or water on site at Norah Head, so you must be fully self-sufficient. The team responds when a space becomes available, and they recommend reapplying every six months.
Is this the same as Sunset Markets Speers Point?
No. This listing is the Norah Head series at Mazlin Reserve. Sunset Markets also runs a separate Speers Point Park series in Lake Macquarie, with its own dates.
