Linares Street Market (Mercadillo de Linares) sets up twice a week on Calle Eriazos de la Virgen in Linares, Jaén. The Tuesday morning session runs from 8am to 1pm, while the Friday evening market runs from 8pm to 11pm. Around 40 stalls line the street, and it's cash only so bring coins and notes.

Fresh fruit and vegetables make up one side of the market, with clothing, footwear, leather goods, and flowers and plants filling the rest.
