Ballan will be turning pink for a good cause when the Pink Up Ballan Market & Family Fun Day takes over St Paul’s Uniting Church on Saturday 3 October.

Part of the month-long Pink Up Ballan 2026 program, the event will raise funds for the McGrath Foundation Cancer Care Nurses, while bringing together a great mix of market stalls, food and family entertainment.

Browse a variety of stalls, grab something to eat from the BBQ, enjoy a coffee and settle in for live local music throughout the day. There’ll also be giant games and family fun, along with Pink Up Ballan merchandise available to help support the fundraising effort.

It’s a relaxed, community-focused way to kick off October’s Pink Up Ballan activities – and a good excuse to spend a Saturday morning exploring Ballan.

Don’t miss:

• Food, BBQ and coffee

• Variety of market stalls

• Live local music

• Giant games and family activities

• Pink Up Ballan merchandise

• Fundraising for McGrath Foundation Cancer Care Nurses.
