What to Expect
The Tasmanian Craft Fair attracts visitors from across Tasmania and interstate and can become particularly busy during weekends and peak visiting periods. As a powerchair user, you can expect a lively environment with crowds, artisan stalls, craft demonstrations and visitors moving between exhibition areas.
The fair takes place across multiple venues throughout Deloraine, with a combination of indoor exhibition spaces and outdoor areas. Pathways and surfaces may include sealed footpaths, paved areas, grass, gravel and temporary flooring, depending on the location. Some venues may have limited accessibility due to their layout or building features.
Travelling between exhibition venues may involve longer distances, so planning your route and allowing additional time is recommended. As some activities take place outdoors, Tasmania's spring weather can bring cool temperatures, wind and rain.
Accessible amenities and facilities may vary between participating venues. Fair organisers, staff and volunteers can assist with directions and accessibility information where available.
This Visual Story will help you understand what to expect when attending the Tasmanian Craft Fair and prepare for navigating the experience at your own pace.
