The Best, Hanz Down

Black Mark Services

Black Mark Services is Armidale’s leading Usury and Pawnbroker. They specialize in new and used for Gold, jewellery, power sports, Electronics, Audio, collectibles, firearms and insurance. They provide loans and have a showroom to display goods for purchase. They have been a feature of Armidale since 1951.

Daedalus Biotechnology

Daedalus Biotechnology has two main functions in Armidale, they import research-quality equipment and reagents into Armidale from across the globe and distribute them to organisations all across the country, and do their own limited research in the labs at the Technology Park next to the University. Logistics are the main source of revenue, but they use a large portion of the profits on their own novel research projects too. As a 24 hour company, they deal with clients in every single time-zone around the globe, and operate almost continually, no matter the time of day, or night.

Gilitrutt Brothers Carnival

The Gilitrutt Brothers Carnival has been a feature in Armidale for as long as anyone can remember. It is a traveling carnival whose circuit takes them from week to week to Tamworth, followed by Armidale, then Glen Innes, Grafton, Port Macquarie and back again - meaning they are in Armidale roughly every month, or if not, close by. Their menagerie includes elephants and tigers as well as a petting zoo of the more cute and cuddly animals for the kids. Their acts include a troupe of clowns whose make-up makes them look alike, and death-defying acrobatic artists, jugglers and more. They have several side-show attractions, such as the cavern of the strange, hall of mirrors, and fun-house maze, as well as rides including ghost train, ferris-wheel, and dodgem cars.

Gwynnd's Crue

Welsh for Sword's Forge, Gwynnd's Crue makes and sells medieval weapons and armour, with the dark ages being their specialty and can custom forge swords and some other weapons as per the customer's desire. Despite the novelty has been a feature in Armidale for years due to the strong tourism and re-enactment following of the city.

Splendidly Burlesque

Armidale's premier Burlesque club. "Always titillating, never tacky". Located in Fairmont Park. Come and see their many and varied shows, all designed to tickle the funny bone or fancy with time honoured burlesque classics in both our comedy and popular routines - or if not interested in the girls, perhaps learn the fine tradition and art of burlesque in a class, or visit the market. They also have the finest event staff for functions, whatever the occasion.

St Sofia’s Catholic Cathedral

An almost evangelical style catholic church with capitalist overtones run by Reverend Jason De Rulo, who preaches that your soul can not only be saved, but can be made more valuable an asset to heaven.

Whurcral Smithy

A foundry specialising in metal-worked weapons and armour as well as specialist metal constructions specifically for the Theatre of Dusk and Dawn Theatre productions and has been a feature in Armidale for years due to the strong tourism and re-enactment following of the city.

Wyrd Things

A local hippy/pagan business. Boasts the largest collection of exotic herbs, all Wiccan or Druid needs, custom and replica jewellery and medieval reenactment gear. To support this claim, if they do not stock it, they offer a service to find it and get it for you.
