Vila-seca Weekly Market

Vila-seca Weekly Market runs on Thursday mornings on Carrer del Requet de Félix in Vila-seca, Tarragona, from 9am to 2pm. Seventy stalls set up in the open air along the street, covering fruit and vegetables, cheese, clothing, footwear and ready-to-eat food, then pack away by early afternoon. It is the town's weekly general market rather than a specialist food market, and it is listed alongside the other street markets in Vila-seca.

What you'll find at Vila-seca Weekly Market

Fresh fruit and vegetables take up a good part of the 70 stalls, with cheese and dairy alongside them and prepared foods for anyone buying lunch rather than a week's shopping. Spices and herbs are sold by weight at their own stalls.

The rest of the market is non-food: clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, and flowers and plants for the house or garden. That mix is why the market draws people who are not shopping for dinner.

Where to stay in Vila-seca

Vila-seca is small, so staying near the centre puts you a few minutes' walk from the Thursday market. Try Town Centre for that, or Port Aventura Area if you want more hotels to choose from.

La Pineda, the beach end of the same municipality, has the broadest choice of hotels and apartments at different price points and is an easy hop back into town for a 9am start.
