In the wee hours of the morning on 23 January 1869, a group of market gardeners found their way to the centre of Adelaide and began to sell their fruits and vegetables. By 6am, about 500 customers had cleaned the vendors out, and Adelaide's "City Market" was born.
Fast forward to today and Adelaide Central Market is more than just a couple of gas lights and rudimentary fencing. It's now home to 80 permanent stalls and over 100 other shops, visited by more than 8 million people per year. It brings the best of Adelaide's produce, and the gourmet foods of our wine regions direct to the centre of the City, and its location next door to Adelaide's Chinatown precinct makes it a perfect place to celebrate Adelaide's multiculturalism in the most delicious way possible - through food.
