Weekly markets in the municipality of Fuente Álamo


Weekly markets in the municipality of Fuente ÁlamoMarket day on Saturday in Fuente Álamo and Wednesday in Balsapintada

For many expats and visitors, one of the great joys of shopping in Spain is the opportunity to buy fresh products and bargain clothes in the weekly local markets, which are awash with colour and noise as shoppers jostle for space, queue to be served, stand and chat, get in each other’s way and generally socialize as they go about the business of stocking up on food and picking out other bargains.

For newcomers, a couple of tips: don’t be scared to choose your own fruit and veg (otherwise you may be given the bruised items!), check that the amount you’re charged is related to the marked prices and look out for pickpockets. But that makes it sound as though the markets are simply a hotbed for petty crime: not the case at all, and the best advice of all is to bear these precautions in mind while rummaging, searching around and enjoying the organized chaos of the event!

The weekly market in the town of Fuente Álamo takes place on Saturday mornings in Avenida de Murcia, and a second market is held in the village of Balsapintada on Wednesdays in the Plaza de los Camioneros (click for location).
