World's Biggest Car Boot Sale
NEXT EVENT:
20 October 2018
​
Did you know that you probably have about five grands worth of unwanted stuff in your home that you could
be selling?
​
The World's Biggest Car Boot Sale is a safe and easy place to sell your collectables, antiques, original, vintage, second hand and new items.
The World’s Biggest Car Boot Sale is a fundraising event organised by Hunter Life Education and is a twice-annual event, taking place in May and October each year.
The World's Biggest Car Boot Sale is a safe and secure event to sell new or unwanted items. Think of it like a BIG garage sale and market. With around 300 sites available, previous years have been a sell out, filling the Newcastle Entertainment Centre with bargains and treasures galore. This event is full of all things you have come to expect - collectible, antique, original, vintage, second hand and new. This event provides a fantastic family experience of a community market with shopping, food and education, and features appearances by Healthy Harold and Big Dog - a great day out for the whole family!
​
WHAT'S NEW?
Our focus on sustainability, fighting the war on waste and our planet's future! The "Sustainability Stage - Preloved to Reloved" will again play host to some presenters showcasing their initiatives for fighting the war on waste and discussing simple ways you can get on board too.
