About Adelaide Showground Farmers' Market

Sundays at the Showground deliver South Australia's purest farm run—100% locally grown, baked, or caught with zero interstate fillers. Regulars weave through the open sheds with wheeled carts, hauling pasture-raised eggs, crisp greens, and freshly netted fish directly from the growers. Beyond the weekly pantry haul, it doubles as an easy Sunday grazing circuit: hot chicken-and-leek pies from Poh Ling’s Jamface stand, crusty olive loaves, French pastries, and small-batch alpaca salami eaten to live fiddle tunes on the lawn. Sign up on-site for a market membership to shave 10% off the morning's haul.

  • Strictly Local Producers: Stallholders are strictly vetted to sell only what they grow, catch, or make within South Australia, keeping wholesale middlemen out.
  • Sunday Grazing & Bakeries: Browse warm chicken-and-leek pies at Poh Ling's Jamface, French comtoise pastries, and sourdough doughnuts alongside live morning buskers.
  • Member Perks: An annual market membership provides a 10% discount across market vendor purchases on the day.

  • A Lively Sunday Brunch Outing

    Visitors can graze across indoor and outdoor stalls offering artisan pastries, specialty coffees, hot dishes, and live musical accompaniment.

    There's so many food stalls, bakeries, cakes, drinks, etc in the indoor area. You can listen to music since there's a few ladies playing the violin.

  • Comtoise

    Next stop was to @Mulots_Patisserie for comtoise - little pastry shell filled with cheese, potatoes, onion and eggs, milk, cream mix. Warmed up the pastry is delicious and so too the filling which is like a warm hug, but needed a bit more seasoning. Not at all rich, lovely creation.

  • Strawberry cheesecake sourdough doughnut

    I also popped by @ButterAndToastAdl for a strawberry cheesecake sourdough doughnut. Very light, soft, spongey with a delicious strawberry cream filling which isn't too sweet. Delicious creation.
