The best weekend markets in the Adelaide Hills
Nowhere in South Australia will you find charming markets like that of the Adelaide Hills. A weekend morning wandering a farmer’s or artist market, coffee in hand, with brunch the final stop.
The Hills is filled with dozens of adorable towns, each with their own personality and feel. You don’t need to travel far to explore a local market or town event, especially in the warmer months.
Whether you frequent the same market every month or love to explore different towns, you’re spoiled for choice.
Here are five of our favourite weekend markets across the Adelaide Hills.

On Saturdays, there’s a community-owned farmer’s market in the Show Hall at the Mount Pleasant Showgrounds. Support local farmers, makers, cooks, and creators.
