2 markets in Torre de la Horadada Verified information

Street markets in Torre de la Horadada run on Wednesday afternoons, not in the morning. Both of the town's street markets set up from 4pm, and the later of the two trades until 10pm, so the weekly market here is something you do after the beach rather than before it. Wednesday is the whole of the market week, and there is nothing on the other six days.

What to expect

The larger of the two is the Winter Market, 55 stalls spread across Calle Norte, Calle Ancla, Calle Galeón and Calle Arpón, and it is the one to come for if you want food: fruit, vegetables, cheese and dairy alongside clothing, footwear, and flowers and plants. The Avenida Costa Blanca market is smaller at 30 stalls and leans towards clothing, footwear, jewellery and handicrafts rather than produce. Its route is wheelchair accessible and dogs are welcome.

Tips for visiting

Come at 4pm for the full run of stalls rather than at 8pm, when traders on the shorter pitch start packing down. Parking near Avenida Costa Blanca goes early in summer. See all markets in this city for both together, or the province page for market days elsewhere in Alicante.
