Market Manager Peter Homan says Easter Saturday April 23 will be an exciting day at Eumundi Markets, with the annual Easter treasure hunt from 8am for children visiting Eumundi Markets.

To take the Easter theme one step further, members of the public and market stallholders are invited to wear weird and wonderfully decorated hats. An Easter bonnet parade with a Mad Hatter twist! The wearers of the best hats seen at the markets on Easter Saturday will win a special two night package at The Beach Retreat Coolum valued at $250.

Crafty kids visiting Eumundi Markets over the school holidays will also have the opportunity to get creative by taking part in kids craft workshops on Saturday 16 April, Wednesday 20 April and Saturday 23 April.

The workshops are being led by local craft queen and ceramic artist Merrie Tomkins. While the workshops are designed for children, big kids (teenagers and adults) are welcome to take part too – if spaces permit. Children under five must be accompanied by a carer – to help them with the tricky bits!
