River and Wren is Waggas iconic market. With an amazing variety of high-quality goods for sale from artwork to soaps to jewellery there is something for everyone. I attended the market last weekend with my husband and two young kids. It was a really enjoyable morning out. I bought flowers, bath bombs for my daughter, macarons and paella for lunch. I would highly recommend this market as one of the best I've ever been to.

A fantastic market full of quality makers and suppliers. So many stalls and vendors and amazing products. From food, homewares, jewellery, arts, music it is such a great vibe and a wonderful way for artisans to show off their incredible products!

I love the River and Wren, it doesn’t matter how often I go I always find something new to bring home. Craft, food, great coffee, nibbles, candles, soaps, paintings and so much more.
This time round I found a doll that is the spitting image of my daughter in law and some signs for my sons wedding next month.

Lots of interesting stalls with handmade and artistic crafts. Also a variety of gourmet food stalls. Each stall is usually staffed by owners of businesses so you can get a great background scoop into their industry and most are happy to have a chat about their setup. Quite pricey and too expensive as a regular food market, but good for specialty items.

A meticulously curated market, ensuring no two stalls are the same. A feast for the senses and a workout for your wallet, this market provides local creators with an outlet to show their wares while giving shoppers a chance to snap up unique and high quality items. Great for gift shopping - if you can bring yourself to part with your purchases!

River and Wren Markets are full of beautiful hand made products and home grown produce with a huge variety to suit everyone's tastes. We love being part of the Markets and you definitely won't be disappointed in what it has to offer from the food to the rustic garden art. So why don't you make the trip to Wagga and see what else this beautiful town and region has to offer.
