Tucked into the lush hinterland of the Sunshine Coast lies one of Australia’s most beloved artisan markets: The Original Eumundi Markets. Open Wednesdays and Saturdays from 7:30 am to 2:00 pm, rain, hail or shine, this vibrant market pulses with creativity, community and charm.
With over 300 stalls, the markets embody the motto “Make It. Bake It. Sew It. Grow It.” — you’ll find everything from handmade crafts, unique jewellery and fashion to art, gourmet food, wellness products and fresh produce.
What Makes Eumundi So Special

- Rich history — what began as a small community market in 1979 has grown into a Sunshine Coast institution attracting over a million visitors each year.
