It’s almost time to deck the halls, and what better way to start the holidays than to delve into the exciting world created by some of the very best designer / makers from across the Central Highlands? Not to mention getting your gift-giving (and receiving) priorities in order.

That’s right, it’s time for the Ballarat Pop-Up Shop!

Returning to Backspace Gallery for a 3rd great year, the Ballarat Pop-Up Shop features a curated selection of over 20 exciting vendors whose work is guaranteed to give you Santa envy. Offering delights from handmade books to handcrafted jewellery, original prints and drawings to natural beauty products, home decorations and bespoke stationery to children’s toys, letterpress cards, and fine boutique sweets, the Ballarat Pop-Up Shop is a sophisticated take on ‘handmade’ – a contemporary urban sensibility where upscale doesn’t necessarily mean up-pricing. The Ballarat Pop-Up Shop features goods at every price-point, from stocking stuffers to that once-in-a-lifetime marquee gift with get-out-of-jail-free benefits for years to come!

Open 6 days only; Friday – Sunday, 21 – 30 November from 10am – 4pm – with late night shopping on Fridays until 9pm – the Ballarat Pop-Up Shop is a truly exclusive market experience!
