Geek Markets aims to hold multiple events every year, one in Canberra and one in Southern NSW making this the region’s largest event for popular culture. Here, fans of movies, series, games, cosplay and more meet to enjoy a unique atmosphere and have fun together.
Geek Markets is thus a great way to reach a specific target group in a unique and effective way.
You can participate in Geek Markets in several different ways. For example, you can book a stand or sponsor an activity area, which is a great way to activate your brand and engage potential customers. We can also develop several sponsorship and advertising solutions where you can effectively communicate your message via our digital channels. We are open to ideas and are very happy to help you find the perfect solution.
Canberra has the fastest economic growth of all states and territories and one of the most secure economies in Australia.
Canberra residents boast the highest average income for Australia ($85,545 per annum) and have the fastest growing average wage.
