The Hobart Showground Market held every Sunday is a must on the shopping lists of the locals and budget conscious tourists alike, with great value in prices and good quality fresh seasonal produce available from the growers and makers themselves.
Trade is brisk with the local stall holders all vying with each other to attract your attention to a bargain!
Being held at the showgrounds means you are never short of parking and there are many a motor home parked with its occupants strolling around the markets enjoying a break from their travels and grabbing the opportunity to pick up fresh supplies to take with them.
Lovely homemade goodies and gifts await you amid the dynamic environment of colour and live entertainment. Stop for a bite to eat and avoid the supermarket chaos, chat to a local and get to know a little bit of the history of Hobart and Tasmania themselves. The locals love to chat and you will not be disappointed with their tales.
