Lakua-Arriaga Market

Lakua-Arriaga Market is a 92-stall open-air market that sets up every Wednesday from 7am to 2pm in the Lakua-Arriaga car park, on the northern side of Vitoria-Gasteiz. It is one of the city's street markets, and the 7am start is early even by Spanish standards.

What you'll find at Lakua-Arriaga Market

Fruit and vegetable stalls take up much of the ground, with meat and poultry, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery stalls alongside them, plus spices and herbs.

The rest is non-food: clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, and flowers and plants each have their own stalls, making this a general weekly market for the Lakua district rather than a produce market.

How to get to Lakua-Arriaga Market

The market fills Parking de Lakua-Arriaga, C/ Portal de Foronda, 48, 01010 Vitoria-Gasteiz, out in the Lakua district north of the centre. The city council's official page carries any date changes for public holidays.

Where to stay in Vitoria-Gasteiz

Lakua-Arriaga is a residential neighbourhood on the northern edge of the city, so staying in the City Centre keeps you close to the old town while leaving the market an easy ride away. The Silken Ciudad de Vitoria is a solid central option, and the Casco Viejo has smaller guesthouses in the medieval quarter.
