Street markets in Bejar
The Béjar Weekly Market is the largest of the three, with 50 stalls spread across an outdoor site. Shoppers can pick up fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, cut flowers and plants, clothing, and footwear, making it a practical stop for both locals and visitors stocking up for the week.
The Béjar Livestock Market focuses on meat and poultry and is the most specialised of the three. It runs weekly outdoors and draws traders and buyers with a professional interest in local produce alongside curious visitors.
The Béjar May Fair Market shifts the focus toward culture and collecting, with stalls dedicated to handicrafts and antiques. It is a good option if you are interested in regional craft traditions or hunting for vintage pieces from the Salamanca province area.
Planning your visit
All three markets are held outdoors, so checking the weather before you go is worthwhile. Bejar sits in the Sierra de Béjar and mornings can be cool even in summer. The weekly rhythm means at least one market is typically running on any given market day. If you are travelling through this part of Castile and León, nearby towns such as Salamanca also have active market scenes worth combining with a visit here. For more on local events and the town, the Ayuntamiento de Béjar provides up-to-date information on schedules and fair dates.
Is there a farmers market in Bejar?

What day is the market in Bejar?

What time does the market open in Bejar?
Bejar's street markets most commonly open at 9am and close at 2pm. That five-hour window covers the Béjar Weekly Market's 50 stalls of fresh produce and clothing on Thursdays, and the Béjar Livestock Market and Béjar May Fair Market's stalls on Saturdays, all trading outdoors.
Are markets in Bejar open on Sundays?
No, none of Bejar's three street markets trade on a Sunday. Trading is concentrated on Saturdays, when the Béjar Livestock Market and the Béjar May Fair Market both run, with the Béjar Weekly Market the only one of the three running midweek, on a Thursday.
