Calafell Medieval Market sets up at Castell de la Santa Creu in Calafell every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 9pm, and it runs from May to September rather than all year. The medieval theme is the point of it: artisan stalls of handicrafts, jewellery, bread and prepared food pitched in the castle grounds. The 9pm close makes it a longer evening than most street markets in Calafell, which pack away by lunchtime.
What you'll find at Calafell Medieval Market
Handmade jewellery and handicrafts from local makers, bread and bakery goods, and prepared food you can eat standing up between the stalls. Everything is outdoors on the castle site, so there is no wet-weather cover.
Where to stay in Calafell
Staying in Calafell Beach puts you within easy walking distance of the medieval market and gives you plenty of accommodation options along the seafront. For something comfortable and well-located, Calafell Town Centre is a solid choice, keeping you close to the action without the summer beach crowds.
If you want a bit more comfort, look at options in Segur de Calafell, just a short drive away, where you'll find quieter spots that are still convenient for the market days.

What day is Calafell Medieval Market?
Calafell Medieval Market runs every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 9pm during its May to September season. All three days keep the same eleven-hour timetable at Castell de la Santa Creu, so a Friday visit gets you the full market rather than a shorter version of the weekend one.
What months is Calafell Medieval Market open?
Calafell Medieval Market opens from May to September, five months of the year rather than all twelve. Outside that season there are no stalls at Castell de la Santa Creu, and the exact first and last weekends shift from year to year, so check calafell.cat before travelling in May or late September.
What can you buy at Calafell Medieval Market?
Calafell Medieval Market sells handicrafts, jewellery, bread and bakery goods, and prepared food, all from stalls dressed to the medieval theme. Because it trades from 10am to 9pm rather than closing at lunchtime, the food stalls cover an evening visit as well as a morning browse through the craft pitches.
