Collective Markets
A Civic Park market at Modbury mixing new, handmade and secondhand stalls with food trucks and music, on dates the operator announces one at a time.
About this market
Collective Markets is one of the few Adelaide markets that mixes brand new stock, handmade goods and secondhand finds on the same lawn. It runs 10am to 3pm at Civic Park, 995 North East Road, Modbury, with food trucks, mini games and music alongside the stalls, and it trades on dates the operator announces rather than on a fixed weekend of the month.
New, handmade and secondhand in one place
Most markets pick a lane. A farmers market sells produce, a maker market sells handmade, and a car boot sells whatever came out of the garage. This one runs all three at once: the listings describe a huge variety of new, handmade and secondhand local items, which means a stallholder with a small business can set up beside a household clearing out a shed. That mix, plus food trucks and mini games, is aimed at a family afternoon rather than a morning produce run, and the 10am to 3pm window reflects it. The venue is a park rather than a hall or a car park, which is what lets the market carry food trucks and games alongside the stalls. Stall enquiries go to [email protected].
Market at a glance
The schedule is the thing to understand about this one.
This market has no "second Sunday of the month" rule to remember. The operator announces each date on its own, and the listings that carry it show single dated entries rather than a repeating pattern, which is why the schedule panel on this page gives a pattern instead of a weekly grid. It also means a market that ran last month is not evidence there is one this month.
Good to know before you go
Confirm the date first, every time. This is an announced-dates market, so the only reliable source is the operator's own page, and a directory listing showing an old date proves nothing about the next one. Once you have a date, the rest is easy: Civic Park sits on North East Road in Modbury, in Adelaide's north-eastern suburbs, with lawn and shade for a long afternoon rather than a hall to shuffle through. The 10am start is later than most Adelaide markets, which makes this one a lunch trip rather than an early morning. Bring cash for the secondhand stalls, where sellers are households rather than businesses, and bring something to carry finds in.
