Weekly Wednesday market with around 15 stalls selling clothing, footwear, and flowers on Avenida de la Constitución in Periana.
Periana Street Market sets up every Wednesday from 9am to 2pm on Avenida de la Constitución in Periana, a small village in the Axarquía region of Malaga province. Around 15 stalls line the main avenue selling clothing, footwear and leather goods, and flowers and plants. It is the village's weekly mercadillo rather than a tourist stop, and it is one of the street markets in Periana worth timing a morning around. Bring cash: the stalls take nothing else.
What you'll find at Periana Street Market
Three trades account for most of the 15 stalls: clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, and flowers and plants. That mix says who the market is for, which is Periana and the farms and hamlets around it rather than day trippers, and it explains why the whole thing is packed away by 2pm. The market is outdoors along the avenue with no covered section, so a wet Wednesday thins the stalls out. Dogs are welcome.
Where to stay in Periana
Periana is a small village, so accommodation options are limited, but staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the Wednesday market. If you'd prefer more choice, the nearby towns of Vélez-Málaga and Málaga city have plenty of hotels and are an easy drive away.
For a rural feel, look into Comarca de la Axarquía, where you'll find rural guesthouses and cortijos that make a lovely base for exploring the market and the surrounding countryside.
