O Grove Street Market

O Grove Street Market sets up every Friday from 9:00 to 14:00 along Avenida de Beiramar in O Grove, Pontevedra, one of the town's regular street markets. It is a general goods mercadillo rather than a food market, so come for clothing, shoes and handicrafts rather than shellfish, and bring cash because the stalls do not take cards.

About O Grove Street Market

The market runs once a week, on Friday mornings only. Everything is outdoors on Avenida de Beiramar, with no indoor hall and no roof over the stalls, so the weather makes a real difference to how long you will want to spend there. Five hours is the whole window, from nine in the morning until two in the afternoon, and traders tend to start breaking down their tables before the last of that. For other market days in the area, see the Pontevedra province page.
