Held along historic Burt Street and in the Loopline Reserve Railway Park on the third Sunday of every month, the markets offer a great day of family fun, loaded with local crafts, displays, food stalls and entertainment. Boulder is ideally suited for this type of community gathering with the Loopline Park as focal point for entertainment, special displays and food stalls. Other stalls are placed under verandahs and along the two blocks of Burt Street from Hamilton to Brookman Street. There is an average of 60 stalls each month. Bookings are essential at all times as the majority of stall holders are regulars and are in the same spot each month. The park is also a hive of activity with different community groups using it for their fund raising or raising community awareness of certain things e.g. the police or health organisations.
The Goldfields Brass Band and Veils of Gold perform on a regular basis in the park and various other groups entertain the crowds as well. Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines provide four free one-hour bus tours to the Super Pit and other special projects sites. These are very popular and the buses are mostly full with people lining up for the tour.
