Tips for visiting

Visit early on Saturday morning, ideally by 10am, to see the best selection and enjoy a quieter shopping experience. Bring a reusable bag or basket, as many stalls prefer not to use plastic. For every market in the city, street stalls and municipal halls together, see all markets in this city; for the wider area see the province page.

Where to stay in Granada

For an early Saturday start at either hall, staying central helps. The Albaicín puts you within walking distance of the city's street markets as well, with a good mix of guesthouses and small hotels. The Centro is another solid choice, close to the Alcaicería and the main shopping streets, both a short walk from Ecomercado GR.

Is Ecomercado GR free to enter?

Yes, entry to Ecomercado GR is free, and you only pay for what you buy from its stalls. The market trades on Saturday mornings, usually from 9am to 2pm, alongside Ecomercado Norte, and stocks organic fruit, vegetables, olive oil and local honey among its regular stallholders.

What time does Ecomercado Norte open?

Ecomercado Norte opens at around 9am on Saturday mornings and closes at roughly 2pm, the same hours kept by Ecomercado GR across the city. Together the two markets sell organic fruit and vegetables, olive oil, local honey, nuts and dried fruit, and spices, with Ecomercado GR the larger of the two at 15 stalls.

What can you buy at Granada's municipal markets?

Granada's municipal markets sell fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables, fish and seafood, meat, cheese and cured meats, alongside organic products, local honey, nuts and dried fruit, olive oil, and spices and herbs. Both markets also run prepared food counters and small cafes, so you can pick up a coffee or a hot dish alongside the weekly shop.

Are Granada's municipal markets open on Sunday?

No, none of Granada's two municipal markets trade on Sunday. Both Ecomercado GR and Ecomercado Norte open only on Saturday, usually from 9am to 2pm, so Saturday is the one day to plan a visit around either hall. For a Sunday market fix, street markets in this city keep a different weekly pattern.
