Antiques and Second-hand Market of El Vendrell

Antiques and second-hand goods are the whole of it. There is no food aisle and no clothing run, which is unusual for a Spanish weekly market and the reason people travel in for this one rather than the town's general markets. Carry cash, since card acceptance varies from one trader to the next.

Staying in the centre of El Vendrell puts you close to the market and within easy walking distance of the town's main squares and cafes. Try El Vendrell Town Centre for the most convenient base, or look at options along the coastal strip if you fancy being near the beach after a morning of browsing.

If you prefer something with a bit more comfort, Coma-ruga is a short drive away and has a good selection of hotels right on the seafront. It makes a relaxed spot to unwind once you've finished hunting for antiques.

Carrer de la Rambla runs through the centre of El Vendrell, and the stalls line the street itself, so there is no hall to find: follow the Rambla and you are at the market. It is entirely outdoors with nothing covered, and trading is done by 2pm. El Vendrell's markets sit within Tarragona province.
