Broome Courthouse Markets
The basics
If you’re in Broome over a weekend, you won’t want to miss a morning at the Broome Courthouse Markets. While shopping is a main attraction, the market also features free entertainment and live music, arts and crafts activities, and booths from preservation groups where visitors can learn more (and observe) koalas and kangaroos. If you’re in Broome on a weekday, you can visit the Broome Courthouse as part of a self-guided audio tour.
