Thorndon Fair 2025

Wellington’s iconic street fair is back!

Since 1977, the Thorndon Fair has been a highlight of the capital’s summer calendar — and in 2025, we’re bringing the energy, creativity and community spirit back to the streets of Thorndon.

With over 250 stallholders from across Aotearoa, this is your chance to discover:
🖼️ Unique art and crafts
🍴 Delicious food and drink
👚 Fashion, accessories and lifestyle products
📚 Books, gifts, toys, and treats for pets
🌿 Outdoor and experience products
🎶 Live music and entertainment all day

Whether you're shopping, looking for a fun day out with the whānau, or just love a good local market — there’s something for everyone.

Around 40% of our stallholders travel 100km or more to be here, so many of the products you’ll find are unique to Wellington on the day.

🎈 Follow our page for sneak peeks, giveaways, and stallholder showcases as we count down to the big day.
