Yandina Markets - Saturday

The Yandina Markets are held on North Street in Yandina, a charming country town in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. A popular community market, it's become a much-loved weekend tradition — bringing together local producers, growers, makers and food vendors offering fresh produce, handmade goods, plants and tasty treats in a relaxed, friendly country setting.

The appeal is that combination of fresh local produce, quality handmade and artisan goods and a vibrant, friendly market atmosphere, ideal for browsing the stalls, stocking up on local produce, discovering makers or grabbing a relaxed bite. Supporting local growers and makers while soaking up the easygoing country-town vibe makes for a lovely outing in the hinterland.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. The market runs on its regular Saturday, but stalls, produce, vendors and trading hours vary with the season, so it's worth checking the current details before you go — though for fresh produce, local goods and a relaxed market morning, it's a lovely spot to spend some time in Yandina.
