Adelaide Central Market General Manager Jodie Kannane said she was pleased to welcome back Sunday shoppers to the Adelaide Central Market.

“Following a positive start in March this year before COVID restrictions came into play, the return of Sunday trading will ensure our customers have more time to shop their essentials including fresh fruit and veg, meat, bread, speciality goods and cheese. They will also be able to enjoy a range of free family fun activities and relax with a coffee or meal at a number of our eateries.”

Free family entertainment options on offer in October include:

• Yoga – customers can start fresh on Sunday morning with free yoga sessions by Roaming Zen (numbers limited and bookings essential)
• Nature craft workshops – craft workshops and nature play will engage little imaginations and big ideas
• Baby disco with kids’ DJ Monski Mouse – under-fives can dance and groove to retro-hits, pop favourites and
thumping nursery rhymes

including Leni and Brian Ruiz.
