September at Carriageworks – Design, Opera and Sake Celebrations Await!
This September, as the days grow warmer, Carriageworks becomes a vibrant hub of creativity and cultural celebration. The month kicks off with Australasia’s premier art fair Sydney Contemporary, and the Carriageworks Farmers Market will celebrate the spring blossoms with the Spring Seasonal Market. Then dive into a weekend of shopping, gourmet food, fine wine, and innovative art at The Big Design Market. Carriageworks will host the world premiere of Gilgamesh, a new Australian opera from Opera Australia and Sydney Chamber Opera, and the Australian Sake Festival returns for a rich celebration of Japanese culture.
