The Valla Beach Community Association (VBCA) hold a market from 8:00am to 1:00pm on the first Saturday of every even month (Feb, Apr, Jun, Aug, Oct, and Dec), focusing on home made and home grown local produce - food, arts, crafts and fantastic musical talent.

It is held at the Valla Reserve (also known as “Lion’s Park”) where the "Don Macrae Shelter" is located, at Valla Beach, a serene and peaceful seaside village.

Planned dates for the rest of 2023 are:

• April 1
• June 3
• August 5
• October 7
• December 2

The market is an initiative of the Valla Beach Community Association to raise money for the protection, repairs and positive growth of Valla Beach along with creating an avenue for networking and bringing the community together for good times and great bargains.

The markets contribute funds towards projects many of which are located at Anderson Park. We have previously outlaid over $15,000 towards a childrens playground and seating, and have installed shading over the playground at a cost in the region of $26,500. A second seating area, including a cover, has also been installed and work was completed to improve the drainage on Anderson Park to make it much more usable after periods of rain. Cricket practice nets have been erected and the installation of netball/basketball courts is also complete.

Help us to set the priorities by coming along to a community meeting or contact us to give us your views.
