Weekly markets in the city and municipality of Murcia
The two largest street markets are held on Thursday mornings, and dozens more take place every week in the municipality of Murcia
The two main weekly street markets in the city of Murcia are both held on Thursday morning, in Avenida La Fama and the district of Santa María de Gracia (mainly in Calle Auditórium, behind the Hospital de la Vega and the Parque de Fofó).
Both are extremely popular, and anyone visiting should certainly not expect to complete their shopping in a hurry! However, if they are popular it is not because shoppers expect to be able to make speedy purchases, but due to the huge range of fresh food available at attractive prices, and to the very wide range of other goods offered at the hundreds of stalls (650 in La Fama and almost 200 in Santa María de Gracia).
Click for locations, Avenida de La Fama and Calle Auditórium.
