Bangalow Information
Bangalow is located 10 minutes south west of Byron Bay and is a delightful nineteenth century streetscape of tall verandah-clad buildings housing a wonderful array of shops selling Oriental carpets and rugs, Tibetan artwork, Japanese Kimonos and silk clothing, exotic homewares, antiques, books and art. The village also has a variety of cafes and restaurants, so you can stroll the shops and then enjoy lunch or dinner.
The Bangalow Community Market, held on the fourth Sunday of each month at the Bangalow Showground, is a showcase of local produce including clothes, jewellery, skin care products, fresh food, plants and trees, and all manner of craft and artwork. There is plenty of shade where you can enjoy lunch or a coffee, treat yourself to a massage and do all your shopping in one place.
Every Saturday morning from 8.00am to 11.00am the Bangalow Farmers Market is set up in the car park behind the Bangalow Hotel. Here you'll find wonderfully fresh salads, herbs, tomatoes, fruit, vegetables and plants, as well as eggs, beef, bread, coffee, sauces, pickles, oils and jams, all produced locally.
In May, the thrills and spills of the Billycart Derby enthral visitors and locals in what has become a major annual event. In November, the Bangalow Show takes over the showground and reminds visitor's of what agricultural shows used to be about: animals in the ring, cookery competitions, contests and fireworks.
