The Boutique Christmas Market

Each season the Wilkinson Gallery at Claremont Showground becomes an intimate, carefully selected marketplace for design lovers, considered gift-givers and food enthusiasts. Around 30 to 40 boutique stalls bring together some of Western Australia's most thoughtful makers and producers. Expect contemporary ceramics, original artworks, jewellery, leather goods, homewares, textiles, babywear and limited-edition pieces you won't find on shelves. Pantry goods, sweet treats and grazing essentials sit alongside tastings from local distillers and winemakers, all set to a curated soundtrack. It runs as a polished, small-scale alternative to sprawling holiday fairs, with a winter edition in July as well as the festive pre-Christmas weekend.
