The Adelaide Showground Farmers’ Market is turning 20, and we’re celebrating with a huge birthday market on Sunday 4 October 2026.

First held on 1 October 2006, the Market has spent two decades bringing South Australian farmers and food producers together with the community. Now it’s time to celebrate the farmers, stallholders, members, shoppers, volunteers and families who have been part of our story.

There will be plenty happening across the Market throughout the morning.

FIVEAA presenters Michael Keelan and Angie McBride, who are regular Sunday morning supporters of the Market, will broadcast their breakfast program live from the Adelaide Showground from 6am to 10am.

The Amazing Drumming Monkeys are joining us for two 30 minute shows at 9.30am and 10.30am, while The Ukes will be back under the Red Umbrellas, The Core Four inside the Stirling Angas Pavilion and Adam busking live on acoustic guitar.

Families can look out for the CFS fire engine, a huge inflatable, Kids Birthday Cupcake Decorating with Joys and Sparkles Face Painting for a small fee.

There will also be birthday cake to share with our Market community, while it lasts.

Make your way around our 20th Birthday Trail and discover special birthday offers, tastings and Market deals from participating stallholders.

Our regular Sunday community activities will be part of the celebrations too, with Community Yoga and the Community Connect BBQ hosted by Adelaide Central Rotary.

And of course, at the heart of the morning will be what Sundays at the Market have always been about: shopping direct from South Australian farmers and producers, enjoying breakfast and coffee, and meeting the people behind your food.

Come and celebrate 20 years with us.
