Christmas markets and Epiphany fairs are the key element of Christmas in Barcelona. Along with Christmas lighting and candlelit carols, they transform the city during the month of December into a more welcoming, less hostile place. These are the best Christmas and Epiphany markets that you can visit this Christmas 2023-2024 in Barcelona, and where, in many of them, you can find those last minute gifts.
Note that the fairs of the Eixample will premiere this year a special lighting installation.
Natalis (Poble Espanyol)
Poble Espanyol is transformed this year into an immersive setting where Christmas is divided into several themed worlds. More than a fair, it is an experience where you can deliver the letter to Santa Claus or the Three Kings, participate in craft workshops and, of course, buy unique products in their stores and temporary stops. It is the star plan for families looking for a safe and magical environment.
📍 Location: Poble Espanyol (Montjuïc) 🗓️ Dates: Weekends in December and from December 20 to January 5, 2026 (check days of partial closure on their website).
Fira de Reis de Sant Antoni (Avinguda Mistral).
A recovered classic that is already an essential part of the neighborhood of Sant Antoni. There are more than 50 stalls with a very “proximity commerce” spirit. It is a comfortable fair, pedestrian and full of family activities, ideal to live the eve of Epiphany away from the big crowds, but with all the excitement of the popular chocolate and street theater.
📍 Location: Avinguda Mistral 🗓️ Dates: From 2 to 5 January 2026
La Fira de Reis de la Gran Via
For those who leave gifts for the last breath or are looking for that toy out of print, Gran Via is full of life. Kilometers of stalls ranging from costume jewelry to ceramics, including the famous toy stalls that save more than one Epiphany night. On January 5 it is tradition to stay until dawn enjoying the atmosphere and some churros with chocolate.
📍 Location: Gran Via (between Muntaner and Rocafort) 🗓️ Dates: From December 15, 2025 to January 6, 2026 ⏰ Hours: Until 21:00h (Saturdays and eves until 22:00h)
Nadal at the Port
It has become the new “must-see” in Barcelona. The Moll de la Fusta is filled with light with a breathtaking LED lighting show on boats and water. In addition to the traditional wooden market, the giant Ferris wheel offers views of the illuminated port that are pure spectacle. It is the most festive and nocturnal market in the city.
📍 Location: Moll de la Fusta (Port Vell) 🗓️ Dates: November 28, 2025 to January 6, 2026
Fira de Brocanters – ‘Mercat gòtic d’antiguitats’ (Brocanters Fair – Gothic Antiques Market)
The classic of classics in front of the Cathedral. It is the ideal place to look for that gift with history: from analog cameras to silver cutlery or old postcards. This special Christmas and Epiphany edition is perfect for those who flee from shopping malls and are looking for pieces with soul to decorate the house or surprise someone special.
📍 Location: Avinguda de la Catedral 🗓️ Dates: From December 27th, 2025 to January 4th, 2026 💸 Tickets: Free access
“Nadal als Mercats”: Mercat del Llibre per Reis (Christmas at the Markets).
What’s better than giving culture as a gift? In the surroundings of the Mercat de Sant Antoni is installed this special edition for the stragglers of Reyes. It is a golden opportunity to find out-of-print jewels, first editions or simply that book that will accompany the winter evenings of someone dear to you.

XIX Fira de Nadal i Reis of Diagonal – Les Corts

Fira de productes tradicionals de la plaça del Pi
No matter when you read this: Plaça del Pi always smells like glory. But at Christmas, the stalls of artisan cheeses, honey, quality sausages and traditional nougat take on a special meaning. It is a must for lovers of “slow food” who want to fill the pantry with first class national product.
