Correction (4 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 4 October 2026.
This is a thin page on purpose. We confirmed two market places near Macleod at two independent sources, and both are in Bundoora: a weekly community market at La Trobe University and a council regional park whose page mentions farmers markets.
The market gives its days and hours on its own site, so those are quoted with the source named. The park page gives a facility list but no market schedule, so we have not made one up. Neither listing states prices, so none are printed.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday market with fresh produce stalls | Kingsbury Drive Community Market | La Trobe University, Car Park 3, Kingsbury Drive, Bundoora |
| Park picnic, farmers markets mentioned | Bundoora Park | Playground Drive, Bundoora |
Kingsbury Drive Community Market — La Trobe University, Car Park 3, Kingsbury Drive, Bundoora VIC 3083
The Kingsbury Drive Community Market says on its own page that it runs every Sunday at La Trobe University, with visitor time listed as 9.00AM to 1.00PM. OpenStreetMap tags the same Sunday window, 09:00-13:00. The page describes stalls with fresh fruits and vegetables and calls it a family-friendly market. It lists a Christmas break closure still to be confirmed, so check before you go late in the year. We could not find an entry cost on the page.
Market day: Sunday, 9.00AM to 1.00PM for visitors, according to the market’s own page, and dogs are welcome on a lead.
Bundoora Park — Playground Drive, Bundoora VIC 3083
Darebin Council calls Bundoora Park its largest regional park, with a mix of recreation, sport, nature and family attractions. Its facility list includes BBQ, dogs off-lead, drinking fountain, picnic shelter, playground, seats, toilets and a shared path. The council page says there are seven shelters spread through the park, used on a first-in, first-use basis. It also lists farmers markets among the uses of the park, but we could not find when or where they run.
The move: Treat it as a picnic and playground stop, and check with the council before planning a market visit here.
