Adelaide River Markets

Adelaide River Markets is a community market located in the town of Adelaide River within the Coomalie Shire, Northern Territory, about 110 kilometres south of Darwin on the Stuart Highway. Held seasonally during the dry season, the market brings together local stallholders offering fresh produce, handmade crafts, plants, and prepared foods. It serves as a social hub for residents and visitors passing between Darwin and Katherine, reflecting the small-town character and rural lifestyle of the Adelaide River region.

Visitors can expect an open-air community market set on flat grounds in the centre of Adelaide River, with rows of stalls under shade and open sky. Stalls typically offer locally grown fruit and vegetables, homemade baked goods and preserves, plants, arts and crafts, and hot food. The setting is casual and family-friendly, with space to walk between stalls, chat with stallholders, and enjoy the rural town surroundings near the Adelaide River and historic railway precinct.
