Markets in Valencian Community

In the Valencian Community, both municipal and street markets play a central role in everyday life, uniting the region’s agricultural tradition with its urban rhythm.

In Valencia city, the Grand Central Market and the neighbourhood markets of Ruzafa and El Cabañal coexist with lively open-air markets held throughout the week.

Alicante and Castellón show the same balance, where modern covered markets stand alongside long-running street fairs filled with fruit, clothing and household goods.

From the citrus-growing plains to the coastal towns, these markets reflect the Mediterranean character of Valencian life. They remain social spaces where freshness, conversation and local commerce come naturally together.
