About this market
Now in its 6th year at the Petrie School of Arts, the Witches Christmas/Yule Night Market is an evening event rooted in the pagan community - blending the southern hemisphere's festive Christmas season with the ancient northern tradition of Yule. Hosted by the Witches Market organisation, the event offers a curated space for local makers, artisans, and traders who align with pagan, new-age, and alternative culture, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for curious first-timers and longtime enthusiasts alike. Running from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the historic Petrie School of Arts, the indoor setting gives it a cosy, intimate feel whatever the weather. The organiser, Wayne, is the sole authorised contact - reach him via market@twnm.com.au or 0415 800 888.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who organises the Witches Market?
The Witches Market is organised by Wayne. He is the only authorised spokesperson - contact him at market@twnm.com.au or 0415 800 888. Be cautious of scammers claiming to represent the event.
What is Yule and why is it celebrated at a Christmas market?
Yule is a historic Germanic winter festival with roots predating Christianity, later incorporated into Christmas traditions. The Witches Market uses the Christmas event as an opportunity to educate visitors on Yule's origins and its connection to modern pagan practice. (Note: in the southern hemisphere, the pagan Yule falls in June - a separate Yule market is held mid-year on the Fraser Coast.)
Is this event suitable for children and non-pagan visitors?
Yes - the market is family-friendly and welcoming to curious first-timers. You do not need any prior knowledge of pagan traditions to enjoy the atmosphere and stalls.
Is the market indoors?
Yes, the event is held inside the Petrie School of Arts hall, so it is sheltered regardless of weather.
How do I get there by public transport?
Petrie train station is close to the venue at 1014 Anzac Avenue. Local bus routes also serve the area.
