We know how important Fair Day is for the community, and we share the disappointment you may be feeling with this news. The team at Mardi Gras has worked tirelessly with NSW Health to find alternative solutions to bring our community a COVID-Safe Fair Day without compromising the spirit of the event. However, and even with the eased restrictions, we haven’t been able to find a format that aligns w
ith the current government restrictions while still having that unique Fair Day atmosphere. Fair Day is successful due to the large number of people attending and their ability to move freely around the Park. When working with NSW Health on COVID-Safe planning for the event, we didn't want to be restricted to a heavily reduced capacity with limited attendees requiring everyone to be seated. It's an outcome that we felt would impact the experience and enjoyment of those who could attend. We have pulled together information on our past Fair Day stallholders and the groups that expressed interest in being a stallholder next year. We hope that this small gesture supports these groups to connect with our communities:

We look forward to welcoming our communities to Fair Day in 2022.
