Vic Crafts Market

Vic Crafts Market (Mercat d'Artesans) sets up every Saturday in Plaça Major, the main square of Vic. It runs from 9am to 2pm and gives the square over entirely to handicrafts, sold by the people who made them. Carry cash, since card acceptance varies from one stall to the next.

What you'll find at Vic Crafts Market

The market specialises in handicrafts and artisan work, so this is one to visit for a single piece rather than a shopping list. What is on the square changes with whichever makers turn out that Saturday, and stalls pack away at 2pm.
