Overview

One of Canberra's most cherished community events, the St John's Community Fair, returns, offering a vibrant day out for families and locals in the heart of the city.

Held in the historic grounds of St John's Anglican Church, Reid, the Fair is a beloved tradition that brings together locals from across the ACT and the wider South East NSW region to celebrate community, generosity, and fun — all while raising vital funds for St John's Care and other outreach programs.

The Fair will feature:

Huge plant and book sales – including thousands of donated titles.
Food stalls – Filipino, Thai, burgers, and the famous sausage sizzle.
Stalls galore – cakes, clothes, gifts, and white elephant treasures.
Kids' Zone – rides, attractions, and a live reptile display.
