Markets in Platja de la Pineda
2 markets tracked in Platja de la Pineda.
The la Pineda market scene comes down to two seasonal street markets in this Costa Dorada resort. You'll see them signed as a mercadillo in Spanish, and Dutch and German visitors will know them as the markt. Platja de la Pineda sits within the Vila-seca municipality in Tarragona, and both markets keep a weekly schedule within their own season, selling handicrafts, clothing, footwear and jewellery from 9am to 1pm.

Where to stay in Platja de la Pineda
Platja de la Pineda is a small resort town, so staying close to the beach and the main promenade puts you within easy reach of everything. Try Seafront Promenade Area for the most convenient base, or look at options like Hotel Platjamar if you want something with a bit more comfort close to the action.
If you don't find what you need in Platja de la Pineda itself, nearby Salou is just a short drive away and has a much wider choice of hotels and apartments to suit most budgets.

Street markets in Platja de la Pineda
The La Pineda Weekly Market runs on Fridays during summer only, set up indoors with stalls selling clothing, footwear, handicrafts, and jewellery. It draws a strong tourist crowd from the resorts between Salou and Tarragona, and arriving in the morning gives you the best chance to browse the full range of stalls before the midday heat.
The La Pineda Craft Market runs during Easter week on an outdoor site, with stalls dedicated entirely to handicrafts. Friday aside, it is the only other point in the year when the town has a market at all, so between them the two cover the spring holiday and the summer season. For more market options along this stretch of coast, Salou and Cambrils both hold regular markets within a short drive. The Tarragona province page covers all market days across the region.

What day is the market in La Pineda?
The La Pineda Weekly Market runs on Fridays, in summer only, and Friday is the only confirmed market day the resort has: nothing trades in Platja de la Pineda from Monday to Thursday or at the weekend. The separate La Pineda Craft Market runs through Easter week rather than on a fixed weekly day.
What time does the La Pineda market open?
Markets in Platja de la Pineda open at 9am and finish at 1pm, so the whole trading day falls in the morning. There is no afternoon session to come back for, so a mid-morning arrival gives you the clothing, footwear, handicraft and jewellery stalls with time to spare.
Where is the La Pineda market located?
The La Pineda Weekly Market is held indoors in the Platja de la Pineda resort area, within the Vila-seca municipality on the Costa Dorada, between Salou and Tarragona. The La Pineda Craft Market sets up outdoors in the same resort.
Is the La Pineda market open all year?
No, neither market in Platja de la Pineda trades all year round. The Friday weekly market runs in summer only, and the craft market is limited to Easter week, which leaves the resort without a street market of its own for most of the autumn and winter.
