Twice-weekly street market in Valencia's Ruzafa neighbourhood, running Mondays and Thursdays from 9am to 2pm at Plaza del Baró de Cortés.
Ruzafa Street Market sets up on Plaza del Baró de Cortés in Valencia every Monday and Thursday from 9am to 2pm. Known in Spanish as the Mercadillo de Ruzafa, Russafa in Valencian, and sometimes searched for as the Ruzafa markt, it is a compact open-air market of around 25 stalls selling clothes, footwear, leather goods and antiques. It is one of the street markets in Valencia that runs on a weekday morning rather than at the weekend.
What you'll find at Ruzafa Street Market
The 25 stalls cover clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, and a smaller antiques section, which is the part people searching for a vintage or flea market stall in Valencia come for. This is a mercadillo rather than a covered mercado, so for fresh food see the municipal markets in Valencia. Stalls here take cards as well as cash.
Where to stay in Valencia
Staying in Ruzafa puts you a short walk from Plaza del Baró de Cortés on a Monday or Thursday morning. Try Casual de las Olas Valencia or Hotel SH Valencia Palace for a comfortable base within easy reach of the market.
For a wider city base, El Carmen is a central district with plenty of rooms and quick transport across to Ruzafa.

What days is Ruzafa Street Market on?
Ruzafa Street Market runs every Monday and Thursday from 9am to 2pm on Plaza del Baró de Cortés. It trades weekly on those two days only, so a Saturday or Sunday visit to the square will find it empty, and the 25 stalls are packed away by early afternoon on the days it does run.
What can you buy at Ruzafa Street Market?
Ruzafa Street Market's 25 stalls sell clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, and antiques. No food stalls are listed for the Mercadillo de Ruzafa, so this is a general street market for clothes and vintage finds rather than produce. For fruit, vegetables and fish, the municipal markets in Valencia cover that instead.
Do stalls at Ruzafa Street Market take cards?
Yes, stalls at Ruzafa Street Market accept cards as well as cash, which is worth knowing because many Spanish street markets are cash-only. Carrying some cash is still sensible for small buys across the 25 stalls, but you will not be stuck if you turn up on a Monday or Thursday with only a card.
