The Weekend Wrap

We are back to what feels like the usual weekend weather forecast, with a shower or two on the cards.


The BoM says 0-5mm for Saturday and 0-4mm for Sunday. Most of the forecast rain will occur on Monday with 4-35mm on the radar and 90% chance of rain.



There is no major event this weekend; however, there are a few things to do around the Lismore LGA.


The next major event is LisAmore! on Sunday, July 6 at the Lismore Turf Club.


The Lismore Farmers Market gets underway at 7:30 tomorrow morning at the Lismore Showground. Fresh fruit and veg, hot breakfast, tea & coffee and specialty items for sale, as well as live music from Georgia Cortes Rayner.



The Nimbin Markets are on this weekend again because it is the fifth Sunday of the month. Head up to the hills to have a look for some unique artisan products unique to the Nimbin community from 9am to 3pm.


Well-known photographer Jacklyn Wagner's 'Through the Heart' photographic exhibition opens tonight at 6pm at the Lismore Regional Gallery at The Quad.

Lismore Regional Gallery is open 10am to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday. The exhibition runs until Sunday, August 10.

It is an easy hour-long walk on unpaved paths. Cost is $5 for adults, with children free, cash only. Meet at the visitors centre at 9:45am for a 10am start.


If live music is your scene, there is plenty over the weekend.
