Tips for visiting

Arrive by 9am, when the stalls open, rather than mid-morning: all three markets finish at 2pm and traders start clearing before that. Bring cash, since card acceptance varies from one stall to the next. The Friday market is out at the Grao rather than in the city centre, so allow travel time for that one.

Where to stay in Castellón de la Plana

Staying in the city centre is the practical choice for a 9am start, putting the Mercat Central and the city's own market days within walking distance and saving you a drive and a parking hunt first. Hotel Intur Castellón is the more comfortable option and still close in. A car earns its keep only for the Friday market at the Grao.

Are street markets in Castellón de la Plana free to enter?

Yes, all three of Castellón de la Plana's street markets are free to enter, on Monday, Friday and Sunday alike. There is no ticket and no charge to walk in, including at the 150-stall Grao de Castellón Friday Market. Card acceptance varies from one stall to the next, so carry cash for the smaller traders.
