Weekly markets in the municipality of Cartagena


Weekly markets in the municipality of Cartagena

Year-round and summer-only street markets in Cartagena

Not all weekly markets are set in stone, and if they coincide with public holidays they may be cancelled or postponed. In addition, days can change, so if you're not sure a call to the relevant tourist office is advisable to avoid a wasted trip (click tourist offices in the region of Murcia for more information).

As a general rule the weekly markets are open from 9.00 to 14.00.

The markets are very popular events, and for those from abroad are especially attractive as they offer an opportunity to buy fresh products and bargain clothes. Many also feature a range of products from plants and flowers to frying pans, baby clothes and electronic equipment: the larger the market, the more variety on offer!

They're crowded affairs, full of colour and noise as shoppers jostle for space, queue at stalls, stand and socialize and generally enjoy the experience of shopping at a relaxed pace!

Cautionary tips

When buying fruit, choose stalls that have prices clearly marked and always ask for the receipt so you can check you've not been overcharged. Traders are obliged by law to give a receipt with a purchase, so don't be shy of asking for one if you feel the bill may not be correct. It's always advisable to check the bill and make sure that the correct price per kilo has been charged and the number of items you have corresponds to the receipt.(tícket or tiquet)

If there are no bags on the stall, ask for one and pick your own fruit, otherwise you will end up with more than you want and you'll be given the bruised items - this is not a cynical remark, but many years of market experience! (bag is "bolsa").

Watch out for pickpockets, crowded areas such as markets tend to attract them all the world over!

Don't be scared to rummage, everyone does and that’s half the fun of it all!
