Mercantic Flea Market

Mercantic Flea Market, the Mercat de Brocanters de Mercantic, sets up outdoors every Sunday from 9am to 3pm at Avinguda Rius i Taulet, 120. Its 50 stalls deal in antiques, secondhand books and magazines, and jewellery, which makes it the vintage-hunting Sunday among markets in Sant Cugat del Vallès and one of the town's street markets. Carry cash.

What you'll find at Mercantic Flea Market

Antiques are the reason most people come: furniture, decorative pieces and curios from dealers whose stock changes week to week, so two Sundays running rarely turn up the same thing.

Books and magazines fill several stalls, from vintage editions to recent secondhand copies. The jewellery stalls run to costume pieces, older rings and the occasional silver find. All 50 stalls trade in the open air, so a wet Sunday is worth checking before you set out.
