) SALAMANCA MARKETS
Salamanca Market
Enjoy the sights, sounds, flavours, action and colour of Australia's best outdoor market - proudly operated by Hobart City Council -every Saturday from 8.30am to 3.00pm at Hobart's Salamanca Place.
Set between graceful plane trees and the mellow sandstone facades of historic warehouses, Hobart's famous market at Salamanca Place attracts thousands of locals and visitors, every Saturday of the year.
They come for the food and music, fresh fruit, crisp organic vegetables, hot baked spuds, the warm aroma of a coffee and croissant, busker's singing the blues, stroking a harp or strumming a lively folk song.
They come for breakfast, scrambled eggs and orange juice at a Salamanca bistro, then a stroll along the hundreds of stalls, meeting friendly people who make or grow what they sell.
Salamanca Market highlights fine Tasmanian art & craft including hand-worked glass, innovative design in Tasmanian timbers, stylish clothing, and bold ceramics.
GETTING THERE
Salamanca Market is a five-minute walk from the city centre. Parking is available in Montpelier Retreat and in city car parks.
Salamanca Market is close to historic St David's Park on the fringe of Hobart's central business district, where city shops are open all day Saturday. From the market, its a short climb up Kelly's Steps to reach the Georgian cottages and the village atmosphere of Battery Point.
Hobart's picturesque waterfront is also nearby across Salamanca lawns to the docks, where hard-working fishing boats are berthed close to cruising yachts and a square-rigger or two.
