The Earlybird Market

.Set just outside Polokwane at the beautiful Baxters Barn Venue, The Earlybird Market is a thoughtfully curated celebration of local creativity, flavour, and community.

Join us on Saturday, 30 May 2026, from 8am to 3pm for a vibrant day filled with local makers, artisans, food vendors, musicians, farmers, and creative businesses from across Polokwane.

From gourmet frozen yoghurt by The Froyo Bar and locally brewed Zwakala lager, to handcrafted fashion from Saartjie’s Boutique, botanical drinks by Herb & Bloom, luxury candles from Grace & Love, fresh flowers, thrifted clothing, books, cheese, cakes, and more — the market is all about discovering unique local finds and supporting the people behind them.

Expect live music by The Baobab Theory Collective, family-friendly creative activities, great coffee, delicious food, and a warm countryside atmosphere full of good energy and connection.

The market will also feature an ethical e-waste drop-off point hosted by Aiden’s Epic Worx, giving visitors the opportunity to responsibly dispose of old electronics while supporting a young local entrepreneur passionate about recycling and refurbishment.

A wholesome day out for all ages — rooted in sustainability, handmade craftsmanship, and community ??

To support our makers, cooler boxes are not permitted. There will be plenty of great food and drinks available on-site — come hungry and enjoy!
