Markets in Ugíjar
Granada, Andalusia
Markets in Ugíjar number three in total, one municipal market hall and two street markets, all within this small eastern Alpujarra town south of the Sierra Nevada. Between them there is something trading every day from Monday to Saturday, and nothing on Sundays. The most common opening hours across the three are 09:00 to 14:00, so plan on a morning rather than an afternoon.
Only one of the three has a confirmed trading day, so if you are timing a trip around a specific market, check its own page before setting out. If you are working your way through Granada province, the markets here are the main reason to stop rather than drive past.

Where to stay in Ugíjar
This is a small town, so your best bet is to stay right in the centre, within walking distance of the market hall and the main square. Town Centre puts you close to everything without needing a car.
If you'd prefer more comfort or flexibility, the surrounding Alpujarra villages have rural accommodation worth considering. Las Alpujarras is a good base if you're exploring the wider area alongside your market visit.
Tours & Activities in Ugíjar
Municipal markets in Ugíjar
One of the three is an indoor municipal market, and it is the dependable option for everyday shopping, with fruit and vegetables, meat, cheese and bread under one roof on the 09:00 to 14:00 morning schedule. This is where locals shop rather than where visitors browse, and it trades across the working week.
Street markets in Ugíjar
The other two are street markets, set up outdoors and leaning towards handicrafts and prepared food rather than the daily shop. Stall counts are not fixed, so the scale varies from week to week. Neither has a confirmed day in our records, which is worth knowing before you build a day around one.
