Market days in Armilla
Sunday is the busiest day in Armilla, with three of the four markets trading, followed by Saturday with two and Monday with one. That adds up to more than four because some of them run across a weekend rather than on a single day. Nothing trades between Tuesday and Friday. Opening hours are consistent: 9:00 to 14:00 is the usual window across the town, which makes every market here a morning trip.
Armilla is a few minutes from Granada by metro, so it is easy to pair a market visit with a trip into the city. Nearby towns with their own markets include Santa Fe and Maracena. For a full picture of what is on across the province, see the Granada markets page. Check the Armilla town council website for any schedule changes around local fiestas.
Street markets in Armilla
Every one of Armilla's four markets is a street market, and the largest of them sets up around 25 stalls every Monday morning from 9:00 to 14:00 on Calle León, next to the Polideportivo. Clothing, footwear and handicrafts make up most of that offer, and it is cash only, so small notes and coins are worth bringing.
The other three are smaller and more specialised. One deals entirely in handmade goods and is the better choice if you want locally produced crafts rather than general merchandise; one is a flea market where antiques and second-hand finds reward unhurried browsing; and one pairs handicrafts with prepared foods, which makes it the only place in town where you can eat on site while you browse. Stall numbers on these three are not fixed. The full list, with days and locations, is on the street markets in Armilla page.
What day is the market in Armilla?

Are there markets in Armilla on a Sunday?
Yes, three of Armilla's four street markets trade on Sunday, which makes it the town's busiest market day. Saturday runs two and Monday one. Across the four you'll find clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, handicrafts, antiques and prepared foods, and the usual trading window is 9am to 2pm.
What time do the markets in Armilla open?
Armilla's street markets open at 9am and pack up around 2pm, so the morning is the only real window. The Monday market on Calle León, next to the Polideportivo, keeps those hours and is cash only, so bring small notes and coins rather than counting on a card being accepted.
