Barakaldo Wednesday Street Market
Weekly Wednesday market in the Cruces neighbourhood of Barakaldo, with stalls selling clothing, footwear and flowers.
Cruces Street Market sets up every Wednesday from 9:00 to 14:00 in the La Paz area of San Vicente de Barakaldo, Biscay. This open-air mercadillo focuses on clothing, footwear, leather goods and flowers, making it a good complement to the city's two municipal food halls. Bring cash, as most stalls don't take cards. Get there early for the best selection, as traders start packing up well before 14:00.
What you'll find
Stalls cover a mix of clothing and textiles, shoes and leather accessories, and seasonal flowers and plants. If you're after fresh food, head to one of Barakaldo's covered markets instead.
