You will meet local artisans, designers, collectors, and producers and discover the story behind the makers that make a visit to Salamanca Market so special.

With so much to see, give yourself plenty of time to browse, enjoy the buskers and musicians and soak up the atmosphere. There is delicious market food to enjoy and plenty of tastings and hot coffee to be found as you stroll around. You will find a huge selection of products to explore, including local gins, whisky and wines, preserves and cheeses, organic skincare, Tasmanian timber and ceramics, woollen products and handmade jewellery, clothing and homewares.
