Twilight on Cambridge – next market December 12
The first Twilight on Cambridge market proved a runaway success, drawing hundreds of locals and visitors to Cambridge Parade for an evening filled with colour, flavour, and community spirit.
The launch event marked the beginning of Manly’s exciting new Twilight Market summer series – and it didn’t disappoint. From the moment the sun dipped below the horizon, the precinct buzzed with life as families, friends, and visitors explored rows of boutique craft stalls and indulged in an array of food and drink options from local favourites.
Live music performances throughout the evening added to the laid-back coastal charm, transforming Cambridge Parade into a lively hub of entertainment and connection.
The Manly Chamber of Commerce and traders alike were thrilled with the turnout. “We couldn’t have asked for a better start,” said one stallholder. “The community really came out to support local; the atmosphere was amazing.”
The excitement continues with the next Twilight on Cambridge market on Friday December 12, promising even more local stalls, great food, and live entertainment. It’s the perfect way to kick off the weekend and soak up the summer vibes by the bay.
