The Old Bus Depot Markets is a multi-award winning market that’s renowned for an exciting mix of regional food and wine produce, art, jewellery, clothing, furniture, and handcrafted jewellery. It is Canberra’s only indoor market and was the first cultural attraction to be opened as part of the Kingston Foreshore Redevelopment program, over 11 years ago.
The multi award-winning Old Bus Depot Markets with its urban contemporary feel, is open every Sunday and renowned for a mix of handcrafted jewellery, art, clothing, furniture and regional food and wine produce, while the Capital Regional Farmers Market every Saturday morning offers an array of fruit, vegetables, plants, flowers, seafood, meat and cheeses.
With over 200 stalls and a huge array of wonderfully presented items for sale, it is really worth a visit during your stay in Canberra. It is adjacent to the famous Canberra Glassworks which opened in 2007, an absolute treat and with many gorgeous glass pieces for sale. Together the venues are not to be missed for picking up some really lovely presents and keepsakes, all of exceptional quality and style.
