Adding to the European-inspired atmosphere, local distillery Spirit of Little Things returns with botanical cocktails and locally crafted pours.

City of Subiaco Mayor David McMullen says the market continues to be one of the City’s signature events.
“After welcoming more than 130,000 visitors last season, the market will be back with even more to discover,” he said. “Six new vendors and our first partnership with WAAPA make this the most exciting season yet.”
