The Igualada market scene is entirely outdoor: two street markets, no covered municipal hall, in this Anoia comarca town roughly an hour inland from Barcelona. Between them they trade on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday, and most stalls are set up by 08:00 and packed away by 14:00.

The bigger of the two is a general weekly street market of 50 stalls, and it is the one to plan around for everyday shopping: fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, cheese and dairy, flowers and plants, alongside clothing, footwear and leather goods. It sets up outdoors, so an early start beats both the queues and the midday heat.
The second is a specialist antiques market, which runs on the last Sunday of each month along Passeig Mossèn Jacint Verdaguer with around 25 stalls. Antiques, handicrafts and jewellery are the draw, with prepared foods and coffee to make a morning of it. It runs from 09:00 to 14:00 and trades cash only, so bring notes rather than a card.
