What’s On in Hobart and Beyond

Your Ultimate Guide to What's On in Hobart and Southern Tasmania

  • Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race: Hobart Race Village

What’s On in Hobart and Southern Tasmania

Discover things to do in Hobart and southern Tasmania with an eclectic year-round calendar of festivals and events, including everything from Mona’s Dark Mofo and Mona Foma festivals to the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race and the Cygnet Folk Festival.

Many Tasmanian visitors shape their stay around being in Hobart on a Saturday. They know that Australia’s largest outdoor market is not to be missed — and Salamanca Market always delivers. From fresh produce and wood-fired pizza to Huon pine picnic planks and silver smiths manning their own stalls, Salamanca is a feast for the senses. This is followed up by the Farmers Market in Hobart’s Bathurst Street each Sunday, and there are plenty of other markets and events to enjoy.

Plan your trip around a market or event and get amongst the lively locals. If you’re looking for things to do in and around Hobart, look no further…

We acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal people and their enduring custodianship of lutruwita / Tasmania. We honour 40,000 years of uninterrupted care, protection and belonging to these islands, before the invasion and colonisation of European settlement. As a destination that welcomes visitors to these lands, we acknowledge our responsibility to represent to our visitors, Tasmania’s deep and complex history, fully, respectfully and truthfully.

We acknowledge the Aboriginal people who continue to care for this country today. We pay our respects to their elders, past and present. We honour their stories, songs, art, and culture, and their aspirations for the future of their people and these lands. We respectfully ask that tourism be a part of that future.
