Saturday Weekly Market of Blanes

About Saturday Weekly Market of Blanes

Every Saturday from 9am to 2pm, Avinguda Catalunya transforms into a street market where vendors line the avenue with their stalls. This weekly market focuses on non-food items, making it different from the Monday market that sells fresh produce.

You'll find clothing and textiles taking up most of the stalls, along with footwear and leather goods spread throughout the market. Handicrafts and books round out the selection, giving you a chance to browse for unique items or practical purchases.

The market operates with modern conveniences that many Spanish street markets are starting to adopt. Mobile payments are accepted at many stalls, so you don't need to rely entirely on cash.

Visitors report that arriving between 10am and noon gives you the best balance of selection and manageable crowds. The market starts winding down around 1:30pm, with some vendors packing up early if they've sold their main items.

Blanes has multiple markets throughout the week, but Saturday's market is the only one focused primarily on clothing and crafts. The location on Avinguda Catalunya makes it easy to combine with other weekend shopping in the town center.

How to Get There

The market runs along Avinguda Catalunya in central Blanes, within walking distance of the main shopping area. From Blanes train station, it's about a 10-minute walk to reach the market area.

If you're driving, street parking around the market can be challenging on Saturday mornings. Consider parking further from the center and walking, or arrive early before 9:30am when spaces are easier to find.

Blanes is connected by regional train service along the coast, making it accessible from Barcelona and other Costa Brava towns. The market location is well-signposted from the town center.
