If you’re looking for unique ways to spend your weekend in Adelaide, you can’t go past one of Adelaide’s fabulous markets.
From food to fashion, bric-a-brac and crafts, antiques and home-wares, there’s one to suit everyone. The problem is often which one to pick! Here at Glam, we’ve popped them all into nice easy categories for you to make the selection that much simpler.
Given the crazy Covid year we’re all having, please check with each market before you attend, to ensure restrictions haven’t changed, or the market hasn’t been cancelled or postponed. It’s also recommended to wear a mask when attending markets, shopping centres, public transport or other areas where distancing might not be possible.
