About Pals Weekly Market
Pals Weekly Market takes place every Tuesday from 8am to 1:30pm on Carrer Enric Fort in this well-preserved medieval town. The market serves both locals doing weekly shopping and visitors exploring the Costa Brava region.
Vendors offer fresh seasonal produce including fruits and vegetables sourced from the surrounding Baix Empordà countryside. You'll also find meat and poultry, fresh bread and bakery items, plus local honey from regional beekeepers.
The market includes clothing and textile stalls alongside the food vendors. Early arrival around 8:30am gives you the best selection before items sell out.
Parking is available, and the market welcomes pets according to local reviews. The medieval stone streets and historic buildings make Tuesday market day perfect for exploring Pals' cultural heritage after shopping.
Vendors typically speak both Catalan and Spanish, reflecting the town's relaxed pace. The indoor setting protects shoppers from weather while maintaining the traditional market atmosphere.
