Paddington Markets has been part of the mission and ministry of Paddington Uniting church for nearly 50 years. The markets began in 1973 as the brainchild of the late Reverend Peter Holden Rev. Holden is considered by many to be a visionary young minister who had just returned to Sydney after helping to organise the legendary Woodstock music festival. At that time, the church community saw the markets as a way to encourage the creativity Paddington had on offer as it developed a new bohemian new identity following the recent migration of artists to the area.
