The famed Waihi Beach Art & Craft Fair is back for the upcoming King's Birthday weekend, so get along on Sunday, June 4.
Organisers Colleen Low and Trish Coates are thrilled to bring the annual fair to Waihi Beach Community Centre.
'This year the fair is fully booked with exciting stallholders – with lots of new faces and the very popular ones returning,” says Colleen.
She reckons interest in the fair has grown so much that people travel from all over the North Island to visit the one-day event.
'This year the variety is enormous – there really is something for everyone.”
Colleen says stallholders' wares range from beautiful hand-sewn garments, hand-knitting for the whole family, jewellery of all kinds – think glass, wooden, leather, silver, gem stones – through to dog and animal attire, retro and vintage recycled items, candles, infusers, beeswax and much more!
'Stallholders have a treasure trove of products – too many to name – but for those with a sweet tooth, lollies and licorice treats are back this year!”

A new on-site café will be available to sit and enjoy fresh hot and cold food and barista coffee.
'You may have been before but every year this fair changes, with many, many, new things. It's a great opportunity to support local craftspeople,” says Colleen. 'The talent always amazes me.”
