Southside Farmers Market
Locals south of the lake flock to Canberra College in Phillip where producers from the region sell their goods on a Sunday morning at this village market. Grab a coffee and bite to eat while you’re there.
Old Bus Depot Markets
The iconic Old Bus Depot Markets, held each Sunday, showcase the best local produce, artisan baked goods, and beautiful handmade items. Grab breakfast or lunch at the market before heading next door to the Canberra Glassworks.
