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…
