Street markets in Ontinyent
The Medieval Market runs every Sunday at Placeta de l'Escurà in the old town, with stalls selling clothing, handicrafts, jewellery, antiques, and prepared foods. It operates indoors with wheelchair access and accepts cash, contactless, and mobile payments.
The Ontinyent Monday Market is the largest in town, with 206 outdoor stalls spread across a weekly Monday site. It focuses on clothing, footwear, and flowers and plants, making it a practical stop for everyday shopping alongside the more character-driven Sunday options.
The Ontinyent Sunday Market runs alongside the medieval event and brings 120 outdoor stalls selling clothing, footwear, antiques, and fresh vegetables. Having two distinct markets on Sunday gives visitors a fuller day out, with the produce and antiques at this market complementing the craft focus of the Medieval Market nearby.
If you are exploring the wider area, Bocairent and Albaida both have their own markets worth combining with a trip to Ontinyent. For local events and town information, the Ontinyent town council website is a reliable reference.
