What you'll find at MAZOKA

Stalls at MAZOKA sell handicrafts and books and magazines, alongside prints, drawings and original illustration work tied to the festival's theme. It's an outdoor market, so everything is set up in the open air rather than under cover.

How to get to MAZOKA

MAZOKA sets up in Salvatierra, Álava, though the festival tours different locations across the province, so check the official page for the current venue and dates before travelling. Explore other street markets in Salvatierra for more local outdoor stalls.

Where to stay in Salvatierra

Salvatierra is a small medieval town, so accommodation options are limited, but staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the festival market and the old walled streets. For a comfortable nearby base, Laguardia is a short drive away and offers more choice, with some good rural hotels in the area.

If you prefer to stay close to a larger city with plenty of options, Vitoria-Gasteiz is around 30 kilometres away and well worth considering, especially if you plan to explore more of the Basque Country during your trip.

What day is MAZOKA?

MAZOKA's schedule varies because the festival tours different towns across Álava rather than trading in one fixed place. Salvatierra is one of the stops, but the dates and venue change from one edition to the next, so check the official page before planning a visit.

What can you buy at MAZOKA?

MAZOKA sells handicrafts and books and magazines, alongside prints, drawings and original illustration work brought by the artists exhibiting at the festival. It's an outdoor market, so stalls are set up in the open air, and the range on show changes with each town the festival visits.
