Committee member Wendy Willingham said the market was all about community, celebration, fun, laughter and family and friends enjoying time together.
“Save the date on your calendar,” she said.
The market is on Saturday, December 14 from 4pm to 8:15pm at Jubilee Park.
“All the usual amazing stalls will be there plus loads of extras, all fitting the ‘make it, bake, it grow it’ theme that Avenel Market is renowned for,” Ms Willingham said.
It will feature a diversity of food vans celebrating different cultures, including Asian, Argentinian, Turkish, Indian and Italian.
“Plus the local Scout group cooking up a storm on the community barbecue,” Ms Willingham said.
“Finish off with all sorts of delicious sweets and treats, along with local wine, boutique beers and gin stalls, plus mocktails to add to the festive spirit.
“Bring along a chair or picnic blanket and soak up the atmosphere under the beautiful shade trees of Jubilee Park while listening and singing along to great music from local band The Skerricks, kindly funded through the Australian Rail Track Corporation.
“Snake Safe are also coming along to showcase their reptiles.
“Children, or those young at heart, can also add some sparkle to their faces from our very talented and creative face painter, again kindly funded through ARTC.
“The local CFA truck will be in attendance and, of course, Santa will make an appearance.”
Jubilee Park will be abuzz with activity to complete your Christmas shopping and get everyone into the festive spirit.
Remember to bring along coins for the Christmas raffle, with items from every stall up for grabs.
Attendees can also check out the ever-impressive Avenel Christmas lights after the sun sets.
