Markets this weekend in Adelaide
6 markets trading in Adelaide on Sunday 18 October.
2 of the 6 are farmers markets. The earliest start is 6am at SA Farmers Market in Pooraka. One of them runs monthly and will not be back next week.
Sunday has about twice as many markets as Saturday in Adelaide, but Saturday has the big one: the Adelaide Central Market is open until 3pm and shut on Sunday.
The monthly ones decide it
More than half of Adelaide's weekend markets run once or twice a month, so which weekend it is matters more here than in most cities. The Adelaide Hills markets are the clearest case: Mylor has the first Sunday, Meadows the second, and Stirling the fourth.
The weekly ones are a smaller set. Marden Markets trades every Saturday, and Adelaide Showground Farmers' Market and Semaphore Community Market every Sunday.
Not on again next week
These run monthly, so this weekend is the one chance for a while. The date after each name is when it next trades.
- The Original Open Market, Christies Beach. Next on Sunday 1 November.
