Pop-Up Pottery Market 2026

Join us for our annual Pop-Up Pottery Market!

Join us for the Wellington Potters' Association's annual Pop Up Market — a celebration of handmade ceramics in one of Wellington's most beautiful settings. This year the market is taking place in the laneway adjacent to the Sound Shell in the Botanic Gardens, a stunning spot to discover your next favourite piece of pottery.

Browse and buy directly from over 20 local potters, each with their own unique style and approach. From functional tableware and decorative pieces to garden ceramics and one-of-a-kind statement works, there's something to suit every taste and budget. Whether you're after a new favourite mug, a special gift, or something to make your garden sing, you'll find it here.

Saturday 14 & Sunday 15 November
10AM–3PM | Entry free
In the laneway running alongside the Sound Shell, Wellington Botanic Garden (off Glenmore Street, Thorndon).

Please note: this event is weather dependent. Rain dates are 21 & 22November.

Check back for Ceramicus 2027 

We're hoping to make Ceramicus a biennial event!
To give our members a bit of creative breathing room, and with the Begonia House currently undergoing renovation, we're rolling the exhibition to 2027 when the venue will hopefully be back in action as our host. Watch this space — and be sure to check back next year for updates on the next Ceramicus!
