Markets in La Bisbal d'Empordà
Girona, Catalonia
La Bisbal d'Empordà markt scene centres on four weekly outdoor markets, making this Baix Empordà pottery town a rewarding stop for both fresh produce and antiques. The flagship weekly market runs every Friday with around 35 stalls, while three additional specialist markets bring antiques, collectibles and handicrafts to the town throughout the week.
La Bisbal d'Empordà sits along the River Daró in Girona province, and its markets draw visitors from across the Empordà region. The town is already well known for its ceramics quarter along Carrer de l'Aigüeta, and combining a morning at the market with pottery browsing makes for a full day out. Nearby towns including Palafrugell and Pals also hold regular weekly markets if you are planning a broader circuit through the area. For local visitor information, the La Bisbal d'Empordà tourism office covers opening times, parking and current events.
