Manly Warringah Stamp Club
Join the Manly Warringah Stamp Club for monthly meetings featuring interesting displays and our renowned Northside Stamp Fair. Discover the joy of stamp collecting in a welcoming community.
About Us
The Manly Warringah Stamp Club operates as a sub-club under the Manly Warringah Rugby League Club on the picturesque northern beaches of Sydney. Established in May 2015 through the merger of two local stamp clubs, our organisation aims to foster a shared passion for stamp collecting.
Our monthly meetings provide members and guests with opportunities to enjoy displays, presented by fellow enthusiasts. Additionally, we host the Northside Stamp Fair on the first Saturday of each month (except January) and a special New Year Stamp Fair in January, with the specific date advertised closer to the event.
We extend a warm welcome to visitors who are interested in joining us for these engaging events. Feel free to become a part of our community and share the joy of stamp collecting with like-minded individuals.
