Spend A Wednesday At Penrith Markets

It really is worth a visit. Penrith Markets on every Wednesday 8.00am to 1.30pm. It is the largest mid week market, held in Penrith Showground. Hundreds of stalls waiting to serve you. There is a great variety of stalls selling craft, clothing, kitchenware, watches, books, antiques, food, pets, car accessories, computers and parts, shoes, jewellery, engraving, CDs and DVDs, lawn mower repairs, key cutting, fruit and veg, cosmetics, plants, posters, restoring of old home movies and photos, personalised names and meanings, and the list goes on...
The showground is centrally located within a vibrant shopping precinct. The Nepean Shopping Centre opposite and the nearby Penrith Plaza. Come to Penrith and spend the day. The market is a 20 minute trip up the M4 from Parramatta.

From next Wednesday 23 June 2010 the management will change the flow of foot traffic though the market to include the undercover area. This is a great innovation and stalls located in this area are very happy with the changes. This involves the closure of a short section of the roadway outside this area. Stalls located in this area will be turned to face the undercover area.
Other news about the place includes a visit to the Penrith Markets by the Leader of the state opposition Mr Barry O'Farrell  M.P. with a state By Election being held in Penrith this weekend. He was seen wandering talking to stall holders and customers at the market. It was also reported PREMIER Kristina Keneally was in the nearby shopping centre and Jackie Kelly former Liberal member for the federal seat of Lindsay was seen shopping in Penrith Markets.
