Colmenar Viejo Farmers Market is a Saturday producer market held at Explanada Plaza de Toros in Colmenar Viejo.

You'll find fresh seasonal produce, quality meat and poultry, artisan cheeses and dairy, baked goods, and organic items. Bring cash — most stalls don't take cards.
What you'll find at Colmenar Viejo Farmers Market
The market focuses on fresh, locally-produced food. You'll find abundant seasonal fruits and vegetables from regional growers, alongside quality meat and poultry from trusted suppliers. The dairy section includes local cheeses and fresh products, while the bakery stalls offer traditional bread and pastries baked fresh.
Beyond produce, stalls sell organic products, spices and herbs, wine and spirits from local producers, and prepared foods ready to take away. It's a genuine working market where producers sell what they grow and make, not a craft or tourist market.

Where to stay in Colmenar Viejo
Colmenar Viejo is a small town, so your best bet is to stay in Town Centre, where you'll be within easy reach of the market and the main square. If you'd prefer more options for accommodation and transport, staying in northern Madrid and making the short trip up by car or bus works just as well.
For a comfortable local stay, take a look at Calle Real area, which puts you right in the heart of town and close to the market site. Either way, the town is compact enough that wherever you stay, you won't have far to go.
