Vegueta Crafts and Culture Street Market
Weekly Sunday market in the historic Vegueta quarter with around 25 artisan stalls. Open 10am to 2pm, selling handmade crafts, leather goods, and local Canarian products.
The Vegueta Crafts and Culture Street Market runs every Sunday from 10am to 2pm in Plaza del Pilar Nuevo, in the heart of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria's historic Vegueta quarter. Around 25 stalls are run by local artisans selling handmade work directly to visitors. All stalls are cash-only, so bring euros before you arrive. Get there by 11am for the best choice before the afternoon crowds pick up.
What you'll find
The market specialises in genuine Canarian crafts: handmade jewellery, leather goods, woven textiles, and clothing sit alongside stalls selling local honey, nuts, and dried fruits. Most vendors make what they sell, so you'll often see craftspeople at work and hear about the techniques behind each piece. Children's activities are sometimes on offer during market hours.
