This weekend, Lane Cove is coming alive with so many activities (many of them free).
Jesuit Mission’s Bazaar at St Ignatius Riverview
It’s back!! A highlight on the Lane Cove Calendar is the Jesuit Mission’s Bazaar which is being held on 10th September 2022 at St Ignatius College Riverview.
Up to 8,000 people of all ages will flock to the event for a day of activities, bargains, rides, music, shows, raffles, prizes, food, spruiking and all out fun. Although the event is sure to be a crowd pleaser, it is about much more than just entertainment and enjoyment on the day.
All funds raised from the annual event go to support Jesuit Mission’s community development work in over ten countries across Asia and Africa.
More details (including how to pre-book tickets for the rides) here.
Lane Cove Theatre – In a Nutshell
