Thank you for your patronage, be assured your attendance at the Market is greatly appreciated by all members of the community who benefit from your support.

The Mission Beach Markets are organised and run by the Mission Beach Rotary Club. All Rotary members who are assisting with the running of the markets are volunteers. All stallholder fees are either spent on the running of the markets or on local community projects.
The smooth running of the markets by unpaid Rotary Volunteers takes a considerable effort, requiring us to be as efficient as possible with our Rotarians time. Your cooperation is appreciated.
