Market days in Jaca
There is no day in Jaca without a market. Friday and Sunday are the fullest, with two of the three trading on each, and Saturday is the thinnest, with one. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each carry one as well.
The usual hours are 09:00 to 14:00, which makes market shopping a morning job here. If you are in town for a weekend and want the widest choice of stalls, Friday and Sunday are the days to build the trip around.
Street markets in Jaca
All three of Jaca's markets are street markets, set up outdoors rather than inside a covered hall, and the largest carries around 25 stalls. Between them they cover fresh vegetables, bread and pastries, cheese and dairy, prepared foods, clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, flowers and plants, jewellery and handicrafts, so the town works for both a weekly shop and a browse for something to take home.
Cash is the most reliable way to pay at all three, since card acceptance varies from one trader to the next. Full details of each one, including stall counts and locations, are on the page for street markets in this city. The official Jaca tourism site is the place to check for seasonal changes and fair-week dates. If you are driving through the valley, nearby Sabiñánigo and Ainsa hold their own markets worth combining with a trip here.
What day is the market in Jaca?
Jaca's three street markets between them trade on every day of the week, so there is a market somewhere in the town whichever day you arrive. Friday and Sunday are the fullest, with two of the three trading, and Saturday the quietest, with one. The usual hours are 09:00 to 14:00.
What time do markets in Jaca open?
Markets in Jaca open at 09:00 and close at 14:00, and those are the usual hours across all three of the town's street markets. That makes them a morning errand rather than an afternoon one, and it is worth arriving well before noon while the fresh vegetables, bread and cheese stalls still have stock.
How many markets are there in Jaca?
Jaca has three markets, all of them street markets held outdoors rather than in a covered hall. The largest carries around 25 stalls and leans towards clothing, footwear, handicrafts and flowers, while the others give more room to organic produce, fresh vegetables, bread and prepared foods.
Is there a market in Jaca on a Sunday?
Yes, two of Jaca's three street markets trade on a Sunday, which makes it one of the town's two busiest market days alongside Friday. They keep the same 09:00 to 14:00 hours as the rest of the week, and cash remains the safest way to pay at the stalls.
