Markets this weekend in Queensland
83 markets trading in Queensland this weekend.
23 of the 83 are farmers markets and 3 are night markets. The earliest start is 5am on Saturday at Rusty's Markets in Cairns City. 14 of them run monthly and will not be back next week.
Queensland weekend markets share one habit: they start early. Six or seven in the morning is usual, and Rusty's in Cairns opens at five. By lunchtime most are gone, so an afternoon plan needs one of the few that stay open.
Four regions, one list
This page covers the whole state, which is a lot of driving. The Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast each have a farmers market on both mornings. Cairns and Port Douglas have their own weekend. Markets this weekend in Brisbane narrows it to the city.
Most Queensland markets run every week, so the weekend list is steadier here than in the southern states.
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.
