About
Around 120 stalls fill the streets around the Sagrada Família basilica, selling nativity-scene figures, Christmas decorations, greenery, and craft gifts. Father Christmas makes occasional appearances to collect children's letters. The market has run since 1962 and offers a smaller, more relaxed atmosphere than the Cathedral market, with the basilica as backdrop.
