Municipal markets in Premià de Mar
Mercat de Sant Joan is the town's municipal market, a covered hall of around 15 stalls and the only one of the three trading across most of the week, Tuesday through to Saturday. That makes it the single option if Saturday is the only free morning you have.
Opening five days out of seven, it is where people shop day to day rather than once a week, so arriving before 14:00 matters more than picking a particular day. The Premià de Mar council website carries official hours and public holiday closures.
Street markets in Premià de Mar
Two of the three are street markets, set up outdoors rather than under a roof. The larger, the Premià de Mar Weekly Market, sets up on a Thursday with around 70 stalls, which is why Thursday counts two markets trading and is the fullest morning of the week. Clothing, footwear and jewellery take up much of it, alongside fruit, vegetables and fish.
The second street market has no confirmed trading day in our records, so treat Thursday as the reliable one and check locally before making a special trip. The Barcelona province page covers the rest of the Maresme coast.

Yes, Mercat de Sant Joan trades in Premià de Mar on Saturday, the town's covered municipal market with around 15 stalls. It is the only one of the town's three markets open that day, and Saturday is the quietest of the trading days, so expect indoor food stalls rather than street stalls.
