Facilities & Accessibility
What day is Cocentaina Street Market?
Cocentaina Street Market runs every Thursday from 8:00 to 14:00 at Plaça el Pla, in the middle of town. It is a weekly market, so the Thursday slot holds through the year, and stalls start packing away before the 14:00 close. Mornings are when the full run of around 70 pitches is up.
What can you buy at Cocentaina Street Market?
Cocentaina Street Market sells clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, costume jewellery, handicrafts and antiques across roughly 70 stalls. It is general goods rather than food, so there is no fresh produce counter. The antiques and second-hand pitches are the part worth walking slowly.
Does Cocentaina Street Market take cards?
No, Cocentaina Street Market is cash only, so draw money out before you get to Plaça el Pla. No card payment is listed for the market, and there is no cash machine guaranteed at the plaza itself. Small notes and coins are the easiest thing to carry for a morning of small buys.
Can you take a dog to Cocentaina Street Market?
Yes, Cocentaina Street Market is pet-friendly, so a dog on a lead is fine among the stalls. The whole market is outdoors in Plaça el Pla with no indoor hall to get through, and it runs from 8:00 to 14:00 on a Thursday, so it stays a morning outing.
