Canberra’s flourishing weekend markets offer so much locally designed and produced goods you will be spoilt for choice. The multi award-winning Old Bus Depot Markets in Kingston is a Sunday institution for Canberrans and visitors alike. The markets are held inside an industrial building that was once the city’s original bus depot. You will find handcrafted jewellery, art, clothing, furniture, toys as well as regional food and wine with plenty of food vendors providing tempting treats such as fresh bread, coffee and sweet delicacies. Visit Canberra’s award-winning quarterly Handmade Canberra market on 4-5 October. Held at the National Convention Centre, this beautiful indoor market was created to support Australian designers to showcase and sell their designs. Craftspeople and farmers from all over the region converge on the showgrounds in the small rural village of Hall on the first Sunday of each month for the Hall Markets to offer everything from plants to furniture, clothing, pottery, toys, art and fresh farm produce. Closer to the city centre, the Gorman House Markets offers collectables, tarot readings, food and massage each Saturday. Be tantalised by the array of fruit, vegetables, plants, flowers, seafood, pastries, meats, cheese and more at Canberra’s fresh produce markets. See the region’s diversity reflected in the fresh seasonal produce at the popular Saturday morning Capital Region Farmers Market, Canberra at Exhibition Park in Canberra (EPIC) in Mitchell or visit the Fyshwick Fresh Food Market (Thursdays to Sunday) or Belconnen Fresh Food Markets (Wednesday to Sunday). Canberra’s fresh produce markets are a great place to grab a bite to eat and soak up the bustling market activity. What are your favourite things to get from Canberra’s markets?
