Hindmarsh Square, also known as Mukata, is one of six public squares in the centre of Adelaide, South Australia, laid out in Colonel William Light's 1837 plan for the city. Located in the eastern part of the central business district between Grenfell Street and Pirie Street, the square features lawns, mature trees, paved paths, public art and a playground. It serves as a green open space for relaxation, events and community gatherings in the city centre.

Hindmarsh Square is one of the six squares laid out in Colonel William Light's 1837 plan for the City of Adelaide. It was named after Rear Admiral Sir John Hindmarsh, the first Governor of South Australia. The square has served as public open space since the foundation of Adelaide and was dual-named Mukata in 2003.

The square is dual-named Mukata to recognise Kaurna people as traditional custodians of the Adelaide Plains. It functions as a community gathering place in the city centre for informal recreation, cultural activities and small events, reflecting Adelaide's parkland and square heritage.
