Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Looking for a Sunday morning treasure hunt? Nerja’s Rastro flea market is the place to browse, bargain and see what unexpected finds are waiting for you.
Please be aware: Rastro Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
Held every Sunday morning, the Rastro brings together an eclectic mix of stalls selling second-hand goods, antiques, vintage pieces, books, clothing, household items, collectibles, tools, furniture and plenty of curiosities. You never quite know what you’ll discover — and that’s part of the fun.
Unlike Nerja’s regular Tuesday market, which focuses more on fresh produce, clothing and everyday market goods, the Sunday Rastro is all about pre-loved items and hidden treasures. Some stalls are run by regular traders, while others are simply local people clearing out cupboards, garages and collections.
It’s a relaxed way to spend a Sunday morning, whether you're hunting for a bargain, looking for something unusual for your home or simply enjoying a wander through the stalls.
Where is the Nerja Rastro
The Rastro is held in the Almijara area of Nerja, around the same market area used for the Tuesday market. Access is via Calle Mirto, following the road towards the market area.
When?
Every Sunday morning, generally from around 9:00 until about 14.00
Going earlier usually gives you the best choice, particularly if you're looking for antiques or something specific. Prefer a leisurely browse? Arrive a little later and enjoy the Sunday atmosphere. Some stalls arrive a little bit later so around 11.00 is busiest time.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Bring some cash, as not every seller accepts cards — it's part of the Rastro experience!
Whether you come home with a vintage curiosity, a bargain for the house or absolutely nothing, Nerja's Sunday Rastro is always worth a wander.
Sometimes the market may be cancelled due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Nerja Amigos cannot be held responsible for cancellations or changes to the advertised schedule.
Fiesta Nacional de España - Spain’s National Day
Fiesta Nacional de España - Spain’s National Day
The Día de la Hispanidad (Hispanic Day), officially known as the Fiesta Nacional de España (National Day of Spain), is celebrated across Spain on 12 October each year.
The date commemorates Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Americas on 12 October 1492, a historic event that began centuries of connections between Spain and the Americas.
12 October is also the Feast of Our Lady of the Pillar (Virgen del Pilar), patron saint of the Guardia Civil.
Across Spain, National Day is marked by official ceremonies and celebrations of the country’s history, culture and national identity.
12 October in Nerja
This year, Spain’s National Day coincides with the final day of Nerja Feria 2026, so there is a full programme of celebrations taking place throughout Nerja.
The day includes traditional music and folklore, children’s entertainment, a musical parade through the streets and the evening Youth Party in Plaza de España, as well as the Feria attractions.
A special Mass in honour of the Virgen del Pilar takes place at 12:00 in the Church of El Salvador, accompanied by the Coro Rociero Peña Nerjeña.
Please see the Nerja Feria page for the complete programme and timings for Monday 12 October.
If a separate official National Day programme is announced by Nerja Town Hall, it will be added here.

Tuesday morning means market day in Nerja!
Please be aware: Nerja Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
The weekly Nerja Local Market is held every Tuesday morning at the market ground in Urbanisation of Almijara II, around Calle Mirto and Calle Cisne, and is a great place to stock up on fresh fruit and vegetables, browse clothes, shoes and bags, and discover everything from plants and household goods to local produce and market bargains.
The market runs roughly from 09:00 until 14:00, but timings are very much Nerja time! ☀️
If you're coming especially for fresh fruit and vegetables, get there early for the best choice. Not every stall starts at exactly the same time, though. During the hot summer months in particular, some traders arrive and set up a little later.

Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Looking for a Sunday morning treasure hunt? Nerja’s Rastro flea market is the place to browse, bargain and see what unexpected finds are waiting for you.
Please be aware: Rastro Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
Held every Sunday morning, the Rastro brings together an eclectic mix of stalls selling second-hand goods, antiques, vintage pieces, books, clothing, household items, collectibles, tools, furniture and plenty of curiosities. You never quite know what you’ll discover — and that’s part of the fun.
Unlike Nerja’s regular Tuesday market, which focuses more on fresh produce, clothing and everyday market goods, the Sunday Rastro is all about pre-loved items and hidden treasures. Some stalls are run by regular traders, while others are simply local people clearing out cupboards, garages and collections.
It’s a relaxed way to spend a Sunday morning, whether you're hunting for a bargain, looking for something unusual for your home or simply enjoying a wander through the stalls.
Where is the Nerja Rastro
The Rastro is held in the Almijara area of Nerja, around the same market area used for the Tuesday market. Access is via Calle Mirto, following the road towards the market area.
When?
Every Sunday morning, generally from around 9:00 until about 14.00
Going earlier usually gives you the best choice, particularly if you're looking for antiques or something specific. Prefer a leisurely browse? Arrive a little later and enjoy the Sunday atmosphere. Some stalls arrive a little bit later so around 11.00 is busiest time.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Bring some cash, as not every seller accepts cards — it's part of the Rastro experience!
Whether you come home with a vintage curiosity, a bargain for the house or absolutely nothing, Nerja's Sunday Rastro is always worth a wander.
Sometimes the market may be cancelled due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Nerja Amigos cannot be held responsible for cancellations or changes to the advertised schedule.

Nochevieja
Nochevieja at the Balcón de Europa
Celebrate New Year’s Eve in the heart of Nerja at the iconic Balcón de Europa, where locals and visitors gather to welcome the New Year with music, fireworks and one of Spain’s best-loved traditions.
The celebrations traditionally begin at around 11:00 PM and continue into the early hours of the New Year.
Expect a lively atmosphere with music and entertainment as the crowds gather ahead of midnight. The highlight of the evening is the countdown to the New Year and the Spanish tradition of eating 12 grapes – one with each stroke of the clock at midnight – to bring good luck for each month of the year ahead.
Once midnight arrives, the New Year is welcomed with celebrations and fireworks over Nerja, creating a spectacular setting above the Mediterranean.
Party favours and festive extras may also be provided as part of the celebrations, helping everyone get into the Nochevieja spirit. 🍇🥂
Dining on New Year’s Eve
Many restaurants around Nerja offer special Nochevieja menus, often combining a multi-course dinner with entertainment, music, the traditional 12 grapes and a midnight toast.
New Year’s Eve is one of the busiest nights of the year, so booking your restaurant well in advance is highly recommended.
What to Wear & Spanish Traditions
There is no strict dress code for the celebrations at the Balcón de Europa, although many people make an occasion of it and dress up for the evening.
And if you really want to follow Spanish New Year traditions, don't forget something red – wearing red underwear on Nochevieja is traditionally believed to bring good luck for the year ahead!
Location
The main celebration takes place at the Balcón de Europa in central Nerja, with its beautiful setting overlooking the Mediterranean.
Bring your 12 grapes, wrap up for the late evening and get ready to welcome the New Year Nerja-style. 🎉

Nerja Local Market
Nerja Local Market
Tuesday morning means market day in Nerja!
Please be aware: Nerja Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
The weekly Nerja Local Market is held every Tuesday morning at the market ground in Urbanisation of Almijara II, around Calle Mirto and Calle Cisne, and is a great place to stock up on fresh fruit and vegetables, browse clothes, shoes and bags, and discover everything from plants and household goods to local produce and market bargains.
The market runs roughly from 09:00 until 14:00, but timings are very much Nerja time! ☀️
If you're coming especially for fresh fruit and vegetables, get there early for the best choice. Not every stall starts at exactly the same time, though. During the hot summer months in particular, some traders arrive and set up a little later.
By around 10:30–11:00, pretty much everything is up and running and in high season the market can already be very busy.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Early bird: Come around 09:00–09:30 for fresh produce, first choice and an easier wander.
Full market atmosphere: Come around 10:30–11:00 when all the stalls are set up but expect more people, particularly during summer.
📍 Where: Calle Mirto / Calle Cisne, Almijara, Nerja
📅 When: Every Tuesday*
🕘 Time: Approximately 09:00–14:00
💶 Entry: Free
*The market may not take place when Tuesday falls on certain public holidays or local fiesta days.
Come with a shopping bag, take your time, and enjoy one of Nerja's favourite weekly traditions.

Nerja Local Market
Nerja Local Market
Tuesday morning means market day in Nerja!
Please be aware: Nerja Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
The weekly Nerja Local Market is held every Tuesday morning at the market ground in Urbanisation of Almijara II, around Calle Mirto and Calle Cisne, and is a great place to stock up on fresh fruit and vegetables, browse clothes, shoes and bags, and discover everything from plants and household goods to local produce and market bargains.
The market runs roughly from 09:00 until 14:00, but timings are very much Nerja time! ☀️
If you're coming especially for fresh fruit and vegetables, get there early for the best choice. Not every stall starts at exactly the same time, though. During the hot summer months in particular, some traders arrive and set up a little later.
By around 10:30–11:00, pretty much everything is up and running and in high season the market can already be very busy.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Early bird: Come around 09:00–09:30 for fresh produce, first choice and an easier wander.
Full market atmosphere: Come around 10:30–11:00 when all the stalls are set up but expect more people, particularly during summer.
📍 Where: Calle Mirto / Calle Cisne, Almijara, Nerja
📅 When: Every Tuesday*
🕘 Time: Approximately 09:00–14:00
💶 Entry: Free
*The market may not take place when Tuesday falls on certain public holidays or local fiesta days.
Come with a shopping bag, take your time, and enjoy one of Nerja's favourite weekly traditions.

Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Looking for a Sunday morning treasure hunt? Nerja’s Rastro flea market is the place to browse, bargain and see what unexpected finds are waiting for you.
Please be aware: Rastro Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
Held every Sunday morning, the Rastro brings together an eclectic mix of stalls selling second-hand goods, antiques, vintage pieces, books, clothing, household items, collectibles, tools, furniture and plenty of curiosities. You never quite know what you’ll discover — and that’s part of the fun.
Unlike Nerja’s regular Tuesday market, which focuses more on fresh produce, clothing and everyday market goods, the Sunday Rastro is all about pre-loved items and hidden treasures. Some stalls are run by regular traders, while others are simply local people clearing out cupboards, garages and collections.
It’s a relaxed way to spend a Sunday morning, whether you're hunting for a bargain, looking for something unusual for your home or simply enjoying a wander through the stalls.
Where is the Nerja Rastro
The Rastro is held in the Almijara area of Nerja, around the same market area used for the Tuesday market. Access is via Calle Mirto, following the road towards the market area.
When?
Every Sunday morning, generally from around 9:00 until about 14.00
Going earlier usually gives you the best choice, particularly if you're looking for antiques or something specific. Prefer a leisurely browse? Arrive a little later and enjoy the Sunday atmosphere. Some stalls arrive a little bit later so around 11.00 is busiest time.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Bring some cash, as not every seller accepts cards — it's part of the Rastro experience!
Whether you come home with a vintage curiosity, a bargain for the house or absolutely nothing, Nerja's Sunday Rastro is always worth a wander.
Sometimes the market may be cancelled due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Nerja Amigos cannot be held responsible for cancellations or changes to the advertised schedule.

La Quema de Algarrobo takes the village back to the early 19th century.

CineClub - Hokum
CineClub - Hokum
(Ireland 2026) Directed by Damian McCarthy. With Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Fernanda Orazi. When novelist Ohm
Bauman retreats to a remote inn to scatter his parents' ashes, he's consumed by tales of a witch that haunts the honeymoon suite. Soon, disturbing visions and a shocking disappearance force him to confront dark corners of his past. A classic haunted house story enriched with atmospheric folklore and perfectly-timed shocks, Hokum further solidifies writer-director Damian McCarthy as a modern master of horror.

Nerja Local Market
Nerja Local Market
Tuesday morning means market day in Nerja!
Please be aware: Nerja Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
The weekly Nerja Local Market is held every Tuesday morning at the market ground in Urbanisation of Almijara II around Calle Mirto and Calle Cisne, and is a great place to stock up on fresh fruit and vegetables, browse clothes, shoes and bags, and discover everything from plants and household goods to local produce and market bargains.
The market runs roughly from 09:00 until 14:00, but timings are very much Nerja time! ☀️
If you're coming especially for fresh fruit and vegetables, get there early for the best choice. Not every stall starts at exactly the same time, though. During the hot summer months in particular, some traders arrive and set up a little later.
By around 10:30–11:00, pretty much everything is up and running and in high season the market can already be very busy.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Early bird: Come around 09:00–09:30 for fresh produce, first choice and an easier wander.
Full market atmosphere: Come around 10:30–11:00 when all the stalls are set up but expect more people, particularly during summer.
📍 Where: Calle Mirto / Calle Cisne, Almijara, Nerja
📅 When: Every Tuesday*
🕘 Time: Approximately 09:00–14:00
💶 Entry: Free
*The market may not take place when Tuesday falls on certain public holidays or local fiesta days.
Come with a shopping bag, take your time, and enjoy one of Nerja's favourite weekly traditions.

Moclinejo - Wine Growers´ Festival
Moclinejo - Fiesta de Viñeros ( Wine Growers Festival )
On 13 September, Moclinejo will celebrate the 26th edition of Día de Viñeros (Winegrowers’ Day), one of the municipality’s most representative festivals and a heartfelt tribute to those who, generation after generation, have dedicated their hard work to cultivating the vines and preserving the area’s agricultural traditions.
Located in a unique setting in the heart of the “Moscatel Heart” of the Axarquía region of Málaga, Moclinejo celebrates the work of its farmers, the true protagonists of the town’s history and identity. Their dedication has helped preserve the landscape, culture and winemaking heritage that make this area so distinctive.
As a result of this commitment to preserving its agricultural heritage, on 19 April 2018 the Axarquía became the first territory in Europe to be recognised by the FAO as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS). This international recognition highlights the exceptional value of the traditional cultivation and production of the Moscatel raisin grape.
Throughout the day, accompanied by the traditional sounds of Verdiales music, the streets of Moclinejo will become a living open-air museum. Local residents and associations will recreate traditional viticultural activities, allowing visitors to see first-hand practices such as grape treading, raisin sifting and the traditional cutting and preparation of raisins, showcasing the skills and customs that have shaped the history of the municipality.
Visitors to Moclinejo will also be able to enjoy free tastings of some of the town’s most traditional products, including borrachuelos made with Moscatel wine, fresh Moscatel grapes and Moclinejo’s distinctive Moscatel wine — authentic expressions of the area’s gastronomy, culture and winemaking heritage.

Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Sunday Rastro / Flea Market
Looking for a Sunday morning treasure hunt? Nerja’s Rastro flea market is the place to browse, bargain and see what unexpected finds are waiting for you.
Please be aware: Rastro Market does not have an exact street address. To find it, follow Calle Cisne to the roundabout, where you’ll find the entrance to the market area.
Held every Sunday morning, the Rastro brings together an eclectic mix of stalls selling second-hand goods, antiques, vintage pieces, books, clothing, household items, collectibles, tools, furniture and plenty of curiosities. You never quite know what you’ll discover — and that’s part of the fun.
Unlike Nerja’s regular Tuesday market, which focuses more on fresh produce, clothing and everyday market goods, the Sunday Rastro is all about pre-loved items and hidden treasures. Some stalls are run by regular traders, while others are simply local people clearing out cupboards, garages and collections.
It’s a relaxed way to spend a Sunday morning, whether you're hunting for a bargain, looking for something unusual for your home or simply enjoying a wander through the stalls.
Where is the Nerja Rastro
The Rastro is held in the Almijara area of Nerja, around the same market area used for the Tuesday market. Access is via Calle Mirto, following the road towards the market area.
When?
Every Sunday morning, generally from around 9:00 until about 14.00
Going earlier usually gives you the best choice, particularly if you're looking for antiques or something specific. Prefer a leisurely browse? Arrive a little later and enjoy the Sunday atmosphere. Some stalls arrive a little bit later so around 11.00 is busiest time.
Nerja Amigos Tip
Bring some cash, as not every seller accepts cards — it's part of the Rastro experience!
Whether you come home with a vintage curiosity, a bargain for the house or absolutely nothing, Nerja's Sunday Rastro is always worth a wander.
Sometimes the market may be cancelled due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Nerja Amigos cannot be held responsible for cancellations or changes to the advertised schedule.
