Eighty stalls of handicrafts, bread and prepared foods fill Hondarribia's walled Casco Histórico every Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 2pm, May to September.
Hondarribia Medieval Fair, the Feria Medieval de Hondarribia, sets up every Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 2pm in the Casco Histórico, the walled old town of this Basque coastal port. It is a summer fair rather than a year-round one: the stalls are out from May to September and the streets are quiet the rest of the year. Eighty stalls fill the narrow lanes and squares inside the walls, and the medieval dressing is what people come for. See all markets in Hondarribia for the town's other options.
What you'll find at Hondarribia Medieval Fair
Handicrafts are the bulk of the 80 stalls. Alongside them are prepared foods to eat as you walk and a run of bread and bakery stalls. Everything is out in the open air, with no cover if the Cantabrian weather turns, and card acceptance varies from one artisan to the next, so carry cash.
Where to stay in Hondarribia
Staying inside the walls puts you a minute from the stalls, so look for a room in Casco Histórico if you can. The Parador de Hondarribia, a converted castle on the main square, sits in the middle of it. Quieter and usually cheaper is La Marina, just below the old town and an easy walk up.

How to get to Hondarribia Medieval Fair
The fair runs in the Casco Histórico, uphill from the harbour and reached on foot through the old gate in the walls. It is a small quarter and the stalls are hard to miss once you are inside it. The town hall's official page carries the season's confirmed dates. Hondarribia has other street markets if you are visiting midweek.

What day is Hondarribia Medieval Fair?
Hondarribia Medieval Fair runs on Saturdays and Sundays, from 9am to 2pm, in the Casco Histórico. It is seasonal rather than weekly all year: the stalls are out from May to September, so a weekend visit outside those five months will find the squares empty.
Which months does Hondarribia Medieval Fair run?
Hondarribia Medieval Fair runs from May to September, on Saturdays and Sundays only, with the 80 stalls trading between 9am and 2pm. Outside those five months the Casco Histórico carries no fair, so check the town hall's own page before travelling in spring or autumn.
Do the stalls at Hondarribia Medieval Fair take cards?
Hondarribia Medieval Fair has no confirmed card payment across its 80 stalls, so carry cash. The fair is entirely open-air, set up along the streets and squares of the Casco Histórico from 9am, and each artisan decides for themselves whether they take a card.
