Playa del Inglés Market

Known in Spanish as the Mercadillo de Playa del Inglés, this is a general goods market rather than a food one, and the whole thing is outdoors. Both days run to the same hours, 8am to 2pm, and the stalls are packed away by early afternoon, so a mid-morning visit gets the market at full strength rather than the last hour of traders folding tables. It runs weekly, all year, with no seasonal break.

The 145 pitches cover four categories: clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, jewellery, and flowers and plants. That mix puts it closer to a flea market than to the produce mercadillos elsewhere on the island, and food is not among the categories listed for it.

Staying in Playa del Inglés puts you right on the doorstep of the market, with plenty of hotels at every budget just a short walk away. Hotel Riu Palace Maspalomas is a solid choice if you want comfort close to the action, or try Hotel Servatur Waikiki for a more affordable base in the same area.

If you prefer a quieter spot, Maspalomas is just a few minutes away and gives you easy access to both the market and the famous dunes.

The address is Parque Europeo, Playa del Inglés, 35100 San Bartolomé de Tirajana, inside the resort itself rather than out of town. For the other options nearby, see the street markets in San Bartolomé de Tirajana, or the official market listing for the council's own details.
