La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market

La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market sets up every Wednesday and Saturday from 9am to 2pm on the Explanada de la Avenida Mare Nostrum, in the coastal part of Mijas. Two market days a week is the thing to know here: miss the Wednesday and the same stalls are back on the Saturday, on the same ground and for the same hours.

About La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market

Both sessions run identically, 9am to 2pm, and both use the same open ground on the Explanada. This is an outdoor market with no indoor hall, so it is set up and cleared away within those five hours and there is nothing to see on the site outside them. It runs weekly all year, with no seasonal months recorded. No stall count is recorded for the market, and no facilities are listed for it.

What you'll find at La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market

Six kinds of stall trade here: clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, flowers and plants, and handicrafts. That makes it a general street market rather than a produce market, so a shop for tomatoes and a shop for a pair of sandals happen on the same walk. The flowers and plants stalls and the handicraft stalls are the ones you are least likely to find at the larger inland markets.

Where is La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market held?

La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market is held on the Explanada de la Avenida Mare Nostrum in La Cala de Mijas, the coastal district of the municipality of Mijas. It is not in Mijas Pueblo, the hilltop village inland, which is a separate journey. The market uses the one open space and packs away by 2pm.

Is La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market indoors or outdoors?

La Cala de Mijas Weekly Market is entirely outdoors, trading in the open on the Explanada de la Avenida Mare Nostrum with no indoor hall or covered section.
