Vic Weekly Market

Vic Weekly Market runs every Tuesday and Saturday from 8am to 2pm on Plaça Major, the square at the centre of Vic. Around 25 stalls trade there, and they take cash, with mobile payments accepted at some of them. Everything packs away at 2pm, so the morning is the whole of it. You can also browse all markets in this city or the other street markets in this city.

Markets have been held in this square since the 9th century, making it one of the oldest continuously running market sites in the region.

What you'll find at Vic Weekly Market

The stalls are food stalls. Seasonal fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and freshly baked bread and pastries are what the 25 traders bring. It is a market for the week's shopping rather than for browsing, so clothing, leather and the household stock of a mixed mercadillo are not part of it.

How to get to Vic Weekly Market

Plaça Major sits at the centre of the old quarter, which makes the walk in short from anywhere in the centre. The square is wheelchair accessible. The train station is about a 10 minute walk away.

Where to stay in Rincon de la Victoria

Rincon de la Victoria is a small coastal town, so staying close to the seafront promenade puts you within easy reach of the weekly market and the beach. Try Town Centre for the most convenient base, or look at options along Seafront if you want to be steps from the water.

What day is Vic Weekly Market?

Vic Weekly Market runs on Tuesday and Saturday, 8am to 2pm, on Plaça Major, and it keeps those same two days every week through the year. Around 25 stalls trade on each of them, and the square is clear again by early afternoon, so a morning visit is the only one that works.

Is Vic Weekly Market open today?

Vic Weekly Market is open today only if today is a Tuesday or a Saturday, the two days it runs each week, from 8am to 2pm. On any other day Plaça Major is an ordinary square with no stalls, so check the day before you make the trip out for it.

What can you buy at Vic Weekly Market?

Vic Weekly Market's 25 stalls sell fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread and pastries. It is a food market rather than a general street market, so the clothing and household goods a mixed mercadillo carries are not part of what trades here.

Do you need cash at Vic Weekly Market?

Yes, cash is the safest thing to carry at Vic Weekly Market, which lists cash and mobile payments as its payment options. Not every one of the 25 stalls will take a phone payment, and card terminals are not listed at all, so bring enough cash for the morning's shopping.
