Capital Region Farmers Market
Canberra District
Every Saturday
The Rotary Club of Hall started this in 2004 with 15 stalls and around 500 customers; it now runs to nearly 200 registered stallholders and 6,000 weekly visitors at EPIC on Northbourne Avenue. Still not-for-profit, still producer-direct. Surplus funds go back into regional communities — a structure that keeps the incentives pointed in the right direction.

CANBERRA DISTRICT, ACT
Old Bus Depot Markets
Canberra District
Every Sunday 10am-4pm
Kingston's old bus depot has housed markets since the idea first took root in 1992. On Sundays, the building fills with vintage clothing, antiques, jewellery, handmade goods, and local food.

Rozelle Collectors
Market
SYDNEY, NSW
Rozelle Collectors Market
Sydney
Every Saturday & Sunday 9am-3pm
Every Saturday, the grounds of Rozelle Public School on Darling Street fill with stallholders selling vintage jewellery, antiques, and retro homewares. It's the kind of market where the browsing is the point — unhurried, analogue, and reliably stocked with the sort of objects that accumulate stories. Rozelle's broader secondhand ecosystem makes it a logical anchor for the neighbourhood.
MARKET
Glebe Markets
SYDNEY, NSW
Glebe Markets
Sydney
Every Saturday
Saturday mornings on the grounds of Glebe Public School, the inner-west's familiar ritual unfolds: vintage clothing rails alongside local jewellers, second-hand records near fresh produce, a live act somewhere in the middle. The kind of market where you arrive for one thing and leave with three others. Every Saturday, 10am to 4pm.
MARKET
Kirribilli Markets
SYDNEY, NSW
Kirribilli Markets
Sydney
Since January 1976, this harbourside market has grown from a Kirribilli Neighbourhood Centre backyard to 220 stalls spread across a former bowling green and the Burton Street tunnel beneath the Bridge. Fashion, jewellery, plants, gourmet food, emerging local designers — proceeds fund the Centre's community programs. The setting, a short walk from the north pylon, does most of the heavy lifting.
MARKET
Carriageworks Farmers
Market
SYDNEY, NSW

Market
BYRON BAY, NSW
Mullumbimby Community Market
Byron Bay
Third Saturday of each month
Since 1989, this monthly market has filled Summers Park — corner of Stuart and Myokum Streets — on the third Saturday of each month. The draw is practical: plants, upcycled furniture, jewellery, and live buskers, with the Brunswick Valley Historical Society Museum at its centre. Proceeds keep the museum running. Forty-five minutes from the Gold Coast; ten minutes to Brunswick Heads.
MARKET
Bangalow Markets
BYRON BAY, NSW
Bangalow Markets
Byron Bay
Jeff Prichard launched this market in 1982 with forty stallholders; today the Bangalow Showgrounds hosts 320-plus. Eleven camphor laurels anchor the space, casting shade over food stalls, rotating local bands, and buskers. Held on the fourth Sunday of each month. A percentage of proceeds cycles back to Bangalow community groups.

Sydney
SYDNEY, NSW
Paddington Markets Sydney
Sydney
Open every Saturday since 1973, this Paddington Uniting Church initiative spreads across 150-odd stalls: local fashion designers, jewellers, soap and candle makers, bonsai sellers, a food court. One of Sydney's longest-running weekly markets, it operates as a not-for-profit — the entry fee goes somewhere useful.
NT
MARKET
Rapid Creek
Markets
DARWIN & TOP END, NT
Rapid Creek Markets
Darwin & Top End
Darwin's oldest weekend market runs Saturdays and Sundays from 7am at Rapid Creek Business Village on Trower Road. The draw is the produce: Asian fruits, fresh seafood, herbs and spices that reflect the suburb's demographics more honestly than any CBD food hall. Exotic plants, handmade crafts and street food fill the rest.

QLD
MARKET
Eumundi Markets
SUNSHINE COAST HINTERLAND, QLD
Eumundi Markets
Sunshine Coast Hinterland
Every Wednesday and Saturday
Three stalls and eight customers in 1979. Today, a million visitors a year descend on this Sunshine Coast town for woodwork, jewellery, fashion, and produce made by the people selling it.

BRISBANE, QLD
Suitcase Rummage
Brisbane
Selected Sundays 8am-1pm (check website)
Daniele started this in Brisbane in 2010 with a simple rule: no tables, no tents, no racks — just a suitcase and whatever you're selling out of it. Pre-loved clothing, handmade objects, upcycled finds. The format flattened the usual market hierarchy and the idea spread nationally. Still the most egalitarian way to spend a Saturday morning.
TAS
MARKET
Salamanca Market
HOBART CITY, TAS
Salamanca Market
Hobart City
Every Saturday
Every Saturday, 8.30am to 3pm, rain or otherwise, 300-plus stallholders stretch the full length of Salamanca Place — from the silos to Davey Street. Local growers, makers, hot coffee. It has run this way since 1972, long enough to become less a market than a standing appointment for anyone in Hobart on a weekend.
MARKET
Evandale Market
LAUNCESTON & TAMAR VALLEY, TAS
Evandale Market
Launceston & Tamar Valley
Falls Park on Logan Road, every Sunday from 8am to 1:30pm. Local produce, secondhand books, bric-a-brac, food vans, and handmade goods spread across a country market in one of Tasmania's best-preserved colonial villages. The steam train in adjacent Morven Park runs the same hours. Unhurried, unpretentious, and genuinely useful for a Sunday morning in the Launceston region.
VIC
MARKET
St Kilda
Esplanade Market
MELBOURNE, VIC
St Kilda Esplanade Market
Melbourne
Every Sunday
Sunday mornings on the Upper Esplanade since 1970, when Councillor Manning opened what was then called the Art Bank with a handful of artists and sculptors. Adam Elliot — later Oscar-winner for *Harvey Krumpet* — sold hand-painted t-shirts here for five years. Potters, jewellers, leather-workers and painters still line the foreshore each week, selling work they've made themselves.
MARKET
Daylesford Sunday
Market
DAYLESFORD & HEPBURN SPRINGS, VIC

Forty-five years old and still running every Sunday, rain, hail or snow.

Dogs on leads welcome. Gold coin appreciated, never required.
MARKET

Market

Melbourne
Every Sunday 6:30am-12:30pm
Balwyn Rotary started this one in 1976, and it's been running every Sunday morning since. Vintage clothing, vinyl, antiques, collectibles, handmade goods — and hot jam donuts.
