Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Will there be new exhibitors at the next exhibition?

A. Yes, we try very hard to gather an evolving collection of works so include new exhibitors to compliment the anticipated favourites.

Q. How is Bush Christmas set up and will I meet the exhibitors?

A. Bush Christmas is not a market with stalls but an exhibition with works exhibited together. It is similar to a gallery presentation with all works sold over one desk. Exhibitors are not generally present as they reside in the rural and remote areas and generally cannot attend, although some do come to be part of the “workforce”.

Q. When is the best time to visit Bush Christmas?

A. Bush Christmas runs for a few days so there is a time for everyone! Those who are searching for a special one-off work, may need to come during the early days of the exhibition.

Those who are elderly or require space for a wheelchair or pram are encouraged to come at a time that is unlikely to be crowded such as afternoons during the week.

Q. What are the accepted methods of payment at Bush Christmas?

A. Payment can be by cash, eftpos or credit card – Bankcard, Mastercard or Visa. Cheques will need to have ID. There is no ATM on site.

Q.Is Bush Christmas by Invitation only?

A. No, we welcome everyone to share the outback experience and perhaps take home a small part of it!
