Tours & Activities in Castellon de la Plana
Street markets in Castellon de la Plana
The Grao de Castellón Friday Market is the largest in the city, with 150 stalls set up outdoors each Friday in the Grao district. Stalls focus on fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, clothing, and footwear, making it a practical weekly shop as much as a market outing. It draws visitors from across the coastal strip and is a good reason to time a visit to Benicàssim or Vila-real around a Friday.
The Castellón Street Market runs every Monday along the Ronda de Circunvalación with around 60 stalls. The offer is broadly similar to the Friday market, with clothing, footwear, and fresh produce, making it a useful midweek option for locals and visitors staying in the city centre.
The Castellón Antiques Market rounds out the weekly schedule with a different feel entirely. Stalls specialise in antiques, books, and jewellery, and while the exact stall count is not confirmed, it is the only market in the city dedicated to second-hand and collectible goods. For official visitor information about the city, the Castellón tourism office lists local events and market dates.
