Correction (9 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.
This page answers one question: where can you find a market in and around Werribee? It covers four places, two in Werribee, one in Little River and one in Hoppers Crossing. Two are makers and farmers markets, one is the racecourse that hosts a market, and one is an events centre with an indoor craft festival.
Each place was checked against at least two sources, including Visit Werribee, Weekendnotes, Only Melbourne and OpenStreetMap. Every date below is the date those listings print, not ours. Market dates move, so check the organiser’s site before you go.

Wyndham Makers & Farmers Market — Werribee Racecourse, 2-10 Bulban Road, Werribee VIC 3030
Visit Werribee calls this a hugely popular market from That’s Mine Events, held on the third Sunday of the month. It describes food trucks for coffee and a bite, fresh fruit, homewares, clothing and accessories, with a gold coin donation on entry and free car parking via Bulban Road. Weekendnotes lists two dates ahead: 18 Oct 2026 from 9am to 2pm at Wyndham Harbour, 50 Quay Blvd, Werribee South, with free entry, then 15 Nov 2026 from 9am to 2pm at the Bulban Road site, gold coin entry. Weekendnotes also lists live music, kids activities and face painting, and says dogs are welcome on leash only.
Market day: Check thatsmineevents.com.au before you go, because the next date Weekendnotes lists is at Wyndham Harbour in Werribee South, not on Bulban Road.
Werribee Racecourse (Picklebet Park Werribee) — 2-10 Bulban Road, Werribee VIC 3030
The club site lists this ground as Picklebet Park Werribee, at the Bulban Road address. Its calendar shows the Werribee International Breakfast with the Stars on Thursday 29 October 2026 and the Country Picklebet Werribee Cup on Sunday 06 December 2026. Visit Werribee names the racecourse as the home of the That’s Mine Events market, with access via Bulban Road and free car parking.
The move: Treat race days and market days as two separate calendars, and check country.racing.com/werribee for the racing one.
Little River Makers and Farmers Market (Possy Newland Reserve) — Possy Newland Reserve, Little River VIC 3211
Only Melbourne says this market will bring together local growers, creators and small businesses for a family-friendly day. It lists Saturday 10th October 2026, 9am - 2pm, and Weekendnotes says the market runs on every 2nd Saturday of the month. Both listings say Possy Newland Reserve, Werribee, but OpenStreetMap places the reserve in Little River, west of Werribee itself. The listing reads as a new market, so check That’s Mine Events before travelling.
Market day: Second Saturday of the month per Weekendnotes; Only Melbourne’s listed date was Saturday 10th October 2026, 9am - 2pm, so check That’s Mine Events for the one after it.
Encore Events Centre — 80 Derrimut Road, Hoppers Crossing VIC 3029
Visit Werribee says Encore Events Centre hosts some of Werribee’s biggest events, concerts, exhibitions, festivals and meetings. Its markets page describes an indoor festival on the first weekend after the Melbourne Cup, with local handmade crafts including jewellery, toys, candles, clothing and Christmas crafts, listed for 6 – 7 November 2026. The centre is at Derrimut Road in Hoppers Crossing, and we could not find regular opening hours for it.
The move: Check encoreeventscentre.com.au for festival details before heading out, since the centre is driven by events rather than set hours.
