Markets in Seville Province

Seville province has 158 markets across 58 towns and cities, and 141 of them are street markets that set up for a few hours and pack away again. The other 17 are municipal halls with fixed stalls and fishmongers who are there six days a week. That split changes how you plan: a municipal market rewards turning up on a whim, a street market rewards checking the day first.

The city of Seville accounts for 39 on its own. After that the numbers drop away quickly, to five each in Cazalla de la Sierra, Las Navas de la Concepción and Estepa, and four each in El Pedroso, La Rinconada, Espartinas and San José de la Rinconada. The small Sierra Norte towns punch above their size here, and a morning that takes in Cazalla de la Sierra and El Pedroso is a realistic drive rather than an expedition.

Most markets in the province run 09:00 to 14:00, the commonest pattern by a clear margin. Arrive at nine and you get the full run of stalls; arrive at half past one and you will watch tables come down around you. Seville sits inside the wider Andalusian market network, where the mid-morning rhythm is much the same.

Which day to go

Saturday is the busiest day in the province, with 52 of the markets trading. Friday follows on 45 and Thursday on 43, so the back half of the week is when most of the province is open for business. Wednesday has 37 and Sunday 38. Monday is the thinnest day, with 28 markets trading, and Tuesday is barely better at 29.

If your dates are fixed and your destination is not, aim for Thursday to Saturday. If your destination is fixed, check that town's own page rather than assuming, because 19 of the 158 markets have no confirmed trading day recorded.
