A little background
he origins of the Xup Neighborhood Street Market (Manresa) date back to the 1950s, when farmers and craftsmen from the region would come to the town of Manresa to trade and sell their goods. As in so many other towns in Barcelona, street vending emerged in tandem with the agricultural calendar and livestock fairs, and over the generations it became established as one of the town’s most important social and economic gatherings.
With the arrival of the 21st century and the economic transformation of rural areas, Manresa’s weekly street market evolved: it gave way to large textile and footwear stalls, incorporated vendors from other provinces, and became professionalized under municipal regulations. Many of today’s market traders are third- or fourth-generation members of families who have been attending this event for decades, maintaining a direct connection to the city’s commercial fabric.
Today, the Xup Neighborhood Street Market (Manresa) retains that down-to-earth spirit while adapting to new trends: organic products, contemporary crafts, local cuisine, and a close relationship with consumers that large shopping centers cannot offer. The town council and the vendors’ association work together to preserve its traditional character right in the heart of Manresa.
