Street markets in Santa Fe
The Santa Fe Medieval Market, officially tied to the Capitulations of Santa Fe, is the larger of the two markets, with around 50 stalls set up outdoors on a weekly basis. It specialises in clothing, footwear and handicrafts, making it a good stop if you are looking for handmade or artisan goods rather than purely everyday produce.
The Santa Fe Thursday Market also runs weekly with 50 stalls and focuses on clothing and footwear. It is a practical, no-frills street market suited to locals and visitors who want to browse affordable fashion and accessories in an open-air setting.
Both markets are free to enter and take place outdoors, so checking local conditions before you visit is worthwhile. Santa Fe sits close to Granada, and visitors combining a trip to the capital may also want to look at markets in Granada or stop by markets in Armilla on the way. For full event dates linked to the medieval market, the Ayuntamiento de Santa Fe publishes official local announcements.
