Todd Mall

The Todd Mall is a mostly pedestrian mall in Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia which serves as its "main street" and is one of the primary locations for shopping and leisure in the town. It contains many of the town's restaurants.
Fortnightly, from mid-March to early December, it also hosts the "Todd Mall Markets" as well as a number of "Night Markets" throughout the year. The Todd Mall is also the location of the Alice Springs Town Council's annual "Christmas Carnival" which features the lighting of the Council's Christmas Tree on the Council Lawns.
