CMRI Christmas Fair Wagga Wagga Children’s Medical Research Institute (CMRI) is a research organisation respected internationally New types of epilepsy treatment are also being developed.

Like our page to receive ongoing updates about new stall holders, catering plans, entertainment and other special announcements about fundraising. The Wagga Wagga Fundraising Committee for the CMRI was established 30 years ago after founding members unfortunately personally experienced the heartbreak and tragedy of genetic disease first hand and decided to raise money to support research efforts to combat the widespread nature of this type of disease throughout the community. CMRI is a world-leading independent research institute dedicated to discovering how to prevent or treat birth defects and diseases such as cancer, epilepsy and a range of genetic disorders. CMRI has a long record of achievements that have made a lasting difference to the health of our nation. Its early work greatly increased the survival rate of premature babies, pioneered microsurgery, and introduced vaccines that protect against potentially fatal childhood diseases. CMRI researchers are now working towards new treatments for some particularly aggressive types of cancers. Researchers are developing cures for various forms of inherited liver disease, which are expected to enter clinical trials in a few years. Many of the diseases worked on affect young and old alike, so CMRI’s research has the potential to improve the health and well being of all Australians and people around the world.

BREAKING NEWS:

Following a meeting of the Wagga Wagga Branch of the Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) on 9 September 2026, it is with deep regret that we advise that the 2026 CMRI Fair will not proceed as scheduled.

For the past 38 years, the CMRI Fair has been a highly successful and valued event on the annual community calendar.
Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, we have been unable to secure sufficient stallholder participation to ensure the viability and success of the event. Rising operating costs, the closure of many small businesses, and the increasing trend towards online-only sales have all contributed to this outcome. In addition, factors such as illness, family commitments and difficulties in obtaining stock have further affected stallholder numbers.

The picturesque MTC grounds, outstanding catering, beautiful floral displays and the warm hospitality of our members, combined with the exceptional quality, diversity and friendship offered by our stallholders, have made the CMRI Fair a unique and much-loved event. The decision to cancel the fair has therefore been an extremely difficult and disappointing one.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience and disappointment this decision may cause.

Please accept our heartfelt thanks for your valued support and contribution to the CMRI Fair over the years.
