What the ABC said about Mindil Market<\/h3>\n

Mindil Market is one of the biggest, and for many people selling or passing through, it’s the best in the Top End.<\/em><\/p>\n

Over the past 30 years, Mindil Market has been talked about before it is seen, in places far removed from Australia’s tropical capital.<\/em><\/p>\n

This is what a recent visitor had to say about the market\u2026<\/h3>\n

Sunset was gorgeous, crowd was friendly, food was surprisingly great, enormous choice of food, went without intention of buying much but that didn’t last past the first three stalls! Lovely locally made jewellery, information stands, not just the usual markety crap. The drummer and didgeridoo player at 8pm were amazing and had the crowd dancing, filming and really on their feet. Well done to them both! Far exceeded expectations! A must see on a Thursday night in Darwin. A great multicultural event including local indigenous folk having a ball.<\/em><\/p>\n
