What's on for free things to do with kids in the Hawkesbury? Roolu lists four free events right now: a market in Windsor, a festival at a market in Richmond and two Christmas events at The Vineyard. This guide covers only the free options. Check each organiser for details before you go.
Markets
- Windsor Mall Sunday Market, in Windsor. The name tells us it is a Sunday market. Check the organiser for hours.
- Annual Stocking Stuffer Festival at Richmond Good Food Market, in Richmond.
Markets are an easy outing with kids because you can arrive, wander and leave when the mood changes. Ask the organiser whether there is anything kids can do, because we haven't been given details.
Christmas events at The Vineyard
- Christmas Carols at The Vineyard, in Vineyard.
- Woodlands Christmas at The Vineyard, in Vineyard.
We don't have times or what is on offer at either, so open the listings. Ask the organiser how it works for young children, in particular if there is a crowd or an evening start.
Planning the day
- The four events are in three suburbs: Windsor, Richmond and Vineyard. Pick one per outing rather than trying to do two.
- Ask about parking and access. Christmas events can draw a crowd, and we don't have details.
- Pack water, a hat and a snack for the kids, so you aren't dependent on what is for sale.
- Check the organiser's page the day before, in case something changes with the weather.
What is missing
We have no free classes, clubs, playgroups or play spaces for the Hawkesbury yet, only events. The area stretches well past Windsor and Richmond, to places like Kurrajong, Pitt Town and Wilberforce, and we're still looking for free options there.
If you know of a free session in the area, the organiser can claim a listing on Roolu. In the meantime, the organisers' own pages have the latest details.
