Market days in Jerez de la Frontera
Monday, Friday and Saturday are the busiest days, with three of the six markets trading; Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday each have two. Monday is the easiest day to combine more than one, since its three are spread across the centre, Plaza de la Constitución and the Los Gitanos ground off Avenida José María Caparrós.
Sunday is the quietest day by count and the biggest by stalls, since the rastro alone accounts for 80. The exceptions to the 9am start are the rastro and the Jerez Norte Saturday market, both open from 8am, and Zona Sur, which trades until 4pm on Fridays.

Street markets in Jerez de la Frontera
Every market in Jerez is an open-air mercadillo rather than a covered hall, and what is on the tables changes with the neighbourhood. The Sunday rastro on Paseo de las Palmeras is the outlier at 80 stalls, the one place where antiques, jewellery and prepared foods sit alongside the clothing rails.
The other five run 25 to 30 stalls each and serve the barrio around them. Clothing and textiles turn up at all six, footwear and handicrafts at five, second-hand books at three. Two of them, Zona Centro on Calle Parada y Barreto and the Plaza de la Constitución market, also sell fresh fruit and vegetables, which is as close as the city gets to a local farmers market. Cash is the safe assumption everywhere.
