Xaló Market is the Saturday rastro of the Jalón Valley, setting up in the open air along the CV-750 in Xaló, Alicante, a village also written Jalón. Around 25 stalls run from 9am to 2pm with antiques, bric-a-brac, jewellery, handicrafts, clothing and textiles, and they take cash only. It is the best known of the street markets in Xaló.
What you'll find at Xaló Market
Antiques and bric-a-brac are what the rastro is known for, sitting alongside jewellery stalls, handicrafts, and clothing and textiles across roughly 25 pitches.
On the first Saturday of each month, the Mercat de la Terra also sets up nearby, where Jalón Valley producers sell wine, mistela, olive oil, cheese, artisan bread and seasonal fruit and vegetables. The Xaló town council page carries the current details on both.

What day is Xaló Market?
Xaló Market runs every Saturday, from 9am to 2pm, all year round. It is a weekly market rather than a monthly or seasonal one, so there is a rastro on the CV-750 every week of the year. Stalls begin packing up before the 2pm finish, so mid-morning is the safest arrival.
What can you buy at Xaló Market?
Xaló Market sells antiques, handicrafts, jewellery, and clothing and textiles across around 25 stalls. Bric-a-brac and vintage pieces make up much of the antiques trade, which is what draws most people to the rastro. On the first Saturday of the month the separate Mercat de la Terra adds Jalón Valley wine, olive oil and cheese.
Do stalls at Xaló Market take cards?
No, stalls at Xaló Market take cash only, so draw money out before you travel to the CV-750 site. That applies across all 25 or so pitches, from the antiques dealers to the jewellery and clothing stalls, and it is worth carrying small notes for haggling over bric-a-brac.
