The 2023 Spring into Sanctuary Point Fair will be held on Saturday, 19th October 2024. If you would like more information about the fair please join our mailing list or email us at sanctuarypointcommunitypride@gmail.com.
History of Spring into Sanctuary Point
In April 2012, the idea of a community event was first raised. It was agreed to run a community event, initially called the Sanctuary Point Expo, later in the year.
The first ‘Spring into Sanctuary Point’ fair was held at Sanctuary Point Public School in 2012. In 2013 it was moved to Francis Ryan Reserve.
Spring into Sanctuary Point highlights the facilities and services available to the residents of Sanctuary Point and surrounding areas. Local, national and indigenous organisations from the local area are invited to have information booths showcasing their products and services.
The fair is organised by a sub-committee each year and is always looking for locals to assist with planning and running this annual event. To be part of this event, please get in touch with us via this website.
