Lennox Market Reopens Under New Management
The Lennox Community Market will reopen on Sunday 9 January with approximately 120 stalls at Williams Reserve. The markets are a vibrant part of the Lennox community and a great day out for the family.
The market is reopening with new management under the Byron Community Centre with Greg Curry as the new Lennox Market Manager. Site allocation will give priority to current and longstanding stallholders of the Lennox Market.
“We’ve had a lot of interest from stallholders and will have a full market,” says Greg. “There will be a great selection of stalls including locally made clothing and crafts, jewellery, fresh produce and a variety of food, plus some pre-loved goods and products. Market goers can listen to laid-back tunes by local legend Micka Scene.”
The market has been held at Lennox Head since the early 1980s but shut down in March 2020 due to COVID-19. After reopening in January 2022, the Lennox Market will continue to be held every 2nd and, where applicable, 5th Sunday of the month.
There is fun for the whole family as well as the skate park and a beautiful reserve to sit back and relax while enjoying live music and great food. There is an array of stallholders offering shopping in a relaxed beachside environment, as well as fresh local and regionally farmed produce.
The market will be located at Williams Reserve directly behind the Lennox Head main street, allowing market goers to combine a visit to Lennox Head and a swim or surf at the beach with the market.
“The vibe at Lennox Market is going to be fun and family-friendly,” says Greg. “All the stallholders and many locals are excited that the markets are coming back. We are working hard behind the scenes and will bring fresh energy to the markets so that it can become a monthly event for the Lennox community.”
The Community Centre operates the Byron Community Market every 1st Sunday of the month, the Byron Beachside Market four times a year, and the Byron Twilight Market in Railway Park from August to April.
Profits from the Lennox Community Market will contribute to community services and programs run by the Byron Community Centre that support vulnerable members of the community.
