The annual Swap Meet, Show n Shine, and Market is returning to Lockington Park on Sunday, May 18.
Organiser Marg Dowie said the event has grown over the last decade or so to become a well-known fixture in Victoria and interstate.
“Each year it’s just gotten larger and larger, which is good news for Lockington,” she said.
Stallholders at the swap meet will mainly include automotive vendors, although bric-a-brac and plant sellers are also expected on the day.
Bargain hunters can browse the various swap meet stalls.

Display vehicles, including trucks and motorbikes, will begin arriving around 8.30am for the show and shine competition, with winners announced at noon.
The Lions will cater the event with a hot breakfast and lunch, backed up by a donut van, coffee van, and a Lockington Heritage Committee soup stall.
EMFM 104.7 will be live broadcasting on-site, interviewing stallholders and Lions members as part of its show.
Ms Dowie thanked Campaspe Shire Council, particularly event support officer Belinda Owen, Shannons, and Autobarn for their support.
The event starts at 7am and will run until around 1pm, with a $5 entry for the public.
