The Rozelle Collectors Market is Sydney’s favourite outdoor second hand, bric-a-brac and antique market. Stallholders have been selling their pre-loved wares to an ever expanding audience in the grounds of the Rozelle Public School for over 20 years and the Rozelle Markets have developed a reputation as a brilliant spot for a poke about, a catch up with friends and place to bag some unique finds.

This convenient open air market operates every Saturday and Sunday, year round, and offers a beautiful outdoor setting alongside the historical buildings of the Rozelle Public School. The Markets are often listed as a must-do market experience for Sydneysiders and tourists from interstate and overseas.

Browse a huge range of pre-loved antiques, collectibles, fashion, jewellery, art and music, all while being entertained by top notch local performers. And when you’re in need of a break, local artisanal providores and international food stalls offer a delicious range of great value food.
