With indoor events restricted to under 100 people and outside events to 500, it does make it difficult to fill an article for what is on this weekend.

Firstly, the weekend weather should be the best we have experienced for about 8 weeks. Maximums of 29 and 30 degrees say the BOM with a 10% chance of rain on Sunday so basically a 'bottler' of a weekend in store Weather.

The Lismore Farmers Markets are running as usual but under certain restrictions outlined below.

1 a strict 450 people at any time policy

2 no Mayfields Kitchen as we are not serving food

3 throw away cups for coffee. Do NOT bring your own cup.

4 no tables and chairs

5 a strict no shaking hands policy

6 hand sanitisers on entry

7 toilet facilities only available for stall holders

We also ask that immediately you have purchased your local produce and supported local farmers you exit the market.

These are difficult times and we thank you for your support.

Please check back here as Government directives could change things without notice.

The Blue Knob Markets will be open tomorrow from 8:30am.

There is some uncertainty regarding the future of the markets as the Blue Knob Gallery will be closing from Sunday but this will be determined during the week. For now, get along and support local growers.

The Josie's Inspiration Charity Golf Day set down for Sunday has been postponed indefinitely. This was a re-scheduled date from February that due to coronavirus is proving impossible to run the event.

The Gollan Hotel has some hard rock on tonight with Toecutter, Numskull and Iki-Jima. There are restrictions on numbers as you would expect. The first 99 people get in, this number will then be maintained and includes staff.

Insomnia were to be playing at Mary G's but that is no more because all live music has been cancelled at Mary G's until further notice.

So, what can we do this weekend?

Put the family in the car and experience some of our great walks like Protester Falls, Rocky Creek Dam, Minyon Falls or Mount Matheson loop. The rain has the water flowing and the re-growth following the devastating bushfires is strong and something to see. Check out all your walking options here Walks.

Rollerworld is still operating in North Lismore under increased restrictions. Numbers are limited to under 100 with the practice of social distancing to 1.5 metres and more hygienic options for patrons throughout the centre.

The other option is for you to go to the CBD and shop locally.

Many people are crowding into the big supermarkets without a concern for social distancing or getting outside so why not the CBD? Our local businesses are hurting and need our support if they are to survive so if you are able please go into the CBD tomorrow and spend some money.

The Lismore App wants to remind you to support local businesses at this time. Your patronage keeps the doors open and protects the livelihoods of people in our community.

Let's end the Weekend Wrap on a light note because we all need a laugh!

Hope it works!
