Weekly Market Llucmajor Mallorca

The weekly market in Llucmajor is one of the largest and most traditional markets in southern Mallorca, bringing the historic town centre to life three mornings a week with a mix of fresh produce, textiles, crafts and a lively local atmosphere. Thanks to its size and frequency, it is a key reference point for markets in the island’s south and a popular excursion for visitors staying along Playa de Palma and nearby resorts.

​

Market days, opening hours and character

Llucmajor holds markets on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday mornings, all centred in and around Plaça d’Espanya in the heart of the town. The main weekly market – the one most visitors mean when they say “Weekly Market Llucmajor” – is the Wednesday market, with a particularly broad range of stalls and a strong focus on fresh produce, textiles and artisan products.

Typical opening hours for the Llucmajor weekly markets are around 9:00 to 14:00, with many sources specifying 9:00–14:00 or 9:00–13:30; some municipal and guide texts also mention a practical window of 9:00–14:00 on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. The busiest time is late morning, but many stalls begin to pack up shortly after 13:00–13:30, so arriving earlier gives a fuller experience.

Location: where the market is in Llucmajor

The weekly market takes place in the central part of Llucmajor, primarily on and around Plaça d’Espanya, then stretching along Passeig Jaume III and connecting streets. On market days, this axis becomes a long corridor of stalls and terraces, with the traditional square acting as the main focal point.

Llucmajor lies in southern Mallorca, about 28 km from Palma and roughly 15 km from the coast, close to important tourist centres such as Playa de Palma and S’Arenal. The town is surrounded by agricultural land, which explains both the strong fresh‑produce section of the market and its historical role as a rural trading centre.

What to expect: products and atmosphere

Llucmajor’s weekly market is described as one of the largest markets in Mallorca, with many stands covering a wide range of goods. Typical offerings include:

• Fresh fruits and vegetables, much of it from fields around Llucmajor and the southern plain.
• Mallorcan delicacies such as cheeses, cured meats (including sobrasada), olives, olive oil, honey and traditional pastries like ensaimadas, empanadas and cocarrois.
• Handmade pottery, textiles and jewellery, plus other artisan crafts that provide more individual souvenirs and reflect local traditions.
• Clothing, leather goods and accessories, including fashion items, bags and everyday textiles for both locals and visitors.
• Plants and flowers, especially around the square and along Passeig Jaume III, adding a colourful, garden‑like feel to parts of the market.

A distinctive element is the second‑hand / flea‑market section on Passeig Jaume III, which arouses particular curiosity among visitors and offers used clothes, household items and curiosities alongside the new goods. This mix of classic weekly market, artisan stalls and flea‑market area makes Llucmajor especially varied.

The overall atmosphere is lively, very local and at the same time open to visitors: many residents from the town and surrounding rural areas come for their weekly shopping, while tourists travel in from the coast to enjoy a more authentic scene than in resort markets. Street cafés and bars around Plaça d’Espanya and along Passeig Jaume III, with their large terraces, allow you to sit down and soak up the market buzz.

How to get to Llucmajor weekly market

Llucmajor is easy to reach from Palma and the coastal resorts thanks to the Ma‑19 motorway, which runs from Palma towards Llucmajor and further along the south coast. From the motorway, you follow the signs into Llucmajor; the market is held in the centre between Passeig Jaume III and Plaça d’Espanya.

Guides describe parking as generally possible close to the market, especially if you arrive earlier in the morning, though central spaces fill up as the day goes on. Some overviews emphasise that parking can be challenging at peak times, so it is smart to arrive between 9:00 and 11:00 and, if necessary, leave the car a little further from the very centre and walk in.

Public transport connects Llucmajor with Palma and nearby towns; visitors staying in Playa de Palma or S’Arenal can often take a bus inland and then walk from the bus stop to Plaça d’Espanya, where the market action is concentrated.

Why visit Llucmajor market in Mallorca

Llucmajor weekly market is an excellent choice if you want a large, diverse market with a strong local foundation in the south of Mallorca. It combines:

• A very broad product range (fresh food, crafts, fashion, plants, second‑hand items),
• A historic town setting around Plaça d’Espanya and the surrounding streets, and
• A genuinely Mallorcan atmosphere, shaped by residents and farmers as much as by visitors.

For many travellers based along Playa de Palma, S’Arenal or the south coast, a morning at the Llucmajor weekly market becomes a highlight: after shopping and tasting local products, you can continue the day by exploring the town, driving to coastal viewpoints or heading back towards the beaches, turning a mid‑week or weekend morning into a full cultural and culinary outing.
