What began in 1994 has grown into one of Ballarat's much-loved annual celebrations, bringing thousands of people together for a huge day of shopping, entertainment, food and family fun.

In 2026, the Rotary Club of Ballarat is thrilled to once again present SpringFest Market Sunday at the beautiful Gardens Precinct, Lake Wendouree, where the whole precinct comes alive with the sights, sounds and colour of SpringFest.

With more than 450 stalls, there's plenty to discover. Browse unique handmade creations, local artisan products, gifts and goodies, enjoy delicious food and drinks, listen to live music and soak up the buzzing festival atmosphere.

Whether you're hunting for that perfect gift, treating yourself to something delicious, discovering local makers or simply enjoying a great day out with family and friends, SpringFest has something for everyone.

And the best part? Entry is free.

Free parking is available at Victoria Park, just a short walk or hop, skip, scoot or jump across to all the SpringFest action.

Come along, explore, shop local, enjoy the entertainment and celebrate 31 years of SpringFest Ballarat.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
