St John's Community Fair

About this event

What to expect

Canberra's favourite Spring Fair returns on the beautiful grounds of historic St John's and will come alive with stalls, music, food, arts and games from across Canberra and surrounding NSW.

Pick up some local gifts from the extensive range of books, plants, clothes, cakes, jams, craft, trinkets and pre-loved goods.

Enjoy delicious international food as local acts perform music old and new. Intimate concerts and organ recitals will be held inside the church. The tower bellringers will keep time with familiar tunes every hour.

Learn about medieval arts and crafts, and watch out for the popular Medieval Tournament.

Kids will enjoy the dedicated Kids Zone with rides, games and amusements.

Tour the 181-year-old precinct, including Canberra's first church, school and graveyard. Tours will be run by the Royal Military College Duntroon Guides.

The St John's Community Fair is all about celebrating community, inclusivity and fun – and helping raise funds for the vital work of the Parish.

St John's is at the corner of Constitution Avenue and Anzac Parade. Ample free parking is available in the surrounding carparks. Buses R3, 56 and 59 stop directly outside Anzac Park West. The full program and stall list will be released on their website shortly before the Fair.
