The Galdakao Agricultural and Craft Fair is the largest of the two markets, with 22 stalls set up outdoors each week. It focuses on locally sourced products including fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, organic produce, and handicrafts, making it a good option if you are looking for eco or artisan goods.

Both markets are held outdoors, so it is worth checking conditions before heading out. Visitors coming from nearby Bilbao or Basauri will find Galdakao easy to reach and both markets worth combining with a broader tour of Biscay's local market scene.
