A forever favourite for market-goers is the Hahndorf
POP Market which is back in 2022 and set for a big year of market fun.

Commencing in June 2015, this year POP Market turns 7 and continues to specialise in showcasing micro and small businesses who are predominantly makers and creators from all around South Australia.
Located in the Hahndorf Memorial Institute, 59 Mount Barker Road, Hahndorf, the POP Market is a regular market held from 11 am to 4 pm on the third Sunday of each month and other special dates.

Built in 1863, the 159-year-old heritage-listed Hahndorf Memorial Institute is an icon on the main street of Hahndorf. Originally established as a place for education, reading and social interactions, today the building is used for a variety of different activities with local events both public and private filling its days and nights. On market days, join crafters and makers displaying their creations.
Come along to any regular Sunday market or join in the fun atmosphere at one of the special markets held throughout the year. Along with the regular monthly markets, come hopping into the POP Market on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 April for the Easter market, and beat the shopping crowds on Saturday 10 December to pick up those last-minute but very special Christmas gifts.

At every market, POP Market creators bring to the market genuinely unique products and with the market focussing on featuring South Australian artisans, you know that your purchase has been handmade and created with love with profits going back into South Australia.
While stalls may vary from market to market, you will find old favourites and new soon to become favourite stalls.

COVID safe measures are in place, such as individual entry and exit doors, enabling you can to shop in comfort. Please observe the latest SA Government restrictions, wear your mask and social distance.
Hahndorf is Australia's oldest surviving German settlement with bakeries, pubs, small goods stores, german food stores, restaurants and cafes. Why not make your visit more than a stroll around the market - but a whole day's adventure as you set out to explore and support our local businesses and artisans. While you can get your treats from the
POP Market to take home, one of my favourite lunch locations is the
German Inn.
Entry to the market is free and public transport is available to Hahndorf from Adelaide. Parking in Hahndorf is simple although can be a little busy at peak times. On-street parking is available either on Main Street or on side streets or there is a car park at one end of town if you don't mind a short walk. Disabled access available.
