Street market with 25 stalls on Calle Formón, open Tuesdays 9am to 2pm and Fridays 9am to 2:30pm. Fresh fruit and vegetables, clothing and textiles.
Collado Villalba Street Market sets up on Calle Formón twice a week, on Tuesdays from 9am to 2pm and Fridays from 9am to 2:30pm. It is one of the regular markets in Collado Villalba, listed alongside the town's other street markets, with 25 stalls selling fruit, vegetables, clothing and textiles. The Friday session runs half an hour longer than the Tuesday one, which makes it the easier morning to arrive late and still find the produce stalls trading.
About Collado Villalba Street Market
This is a weekly shopping market rather than a tourist stop. Twenty-five stalls is a manageable size: you can walk the whole run in a few minutes and compare prices on the same box of tomatoes at two or three pitches before buying. Everything is outdoors, so the earlier hours are the more comfortable ones in July and August.
What you'll find at Collado Villalba Street Market
Fresh fruit and vegetables are the backbone of the market, sold by the kilo from crates. The rest of the stalls deal in clothing and textiles, the usual mix of basics, work clothes and household fabrics at market prices rather than shop prices.
Where to stay in Collado Villalba
Staying near the centre of Collado Villalba keeps you within easy reach of Calle Formón for a 9am start. Town Centre accommodation is the most convenient, while the Sierra de Guadarrama suits a quieter base with the market a short drive away.

Collado Villalba Street Market's 25 stalls sell fresh fruit and vegetables, clothing and textiles.

Yes, Collado Villalba Street Market takes cards. Stalls on Calle Formón accept cash, contactless and mobile payments, which is more flexible than most Spanish mercadillos, where cash is still the only option.

Is Collado Villalba street market wheelchair accessible?
