Hippy Market Punta Arabí

Wednesday hippie market in Es Canar, running since 1973.

What makes the Hippy Market Punta Arabí special

Since 1973, Es Canar has hosted the Hippy Market Punta Arabí on Wednesdays. Es Canar is on the east coast of Ibiza, in the municipality of Santa Eulària des Riu. The market describes itself as the largest and oldest on Ibiza.

According to the organisers, more than 400 stalls take part over the course of the season. You’ll find jewellery, accessories, clothing and decorative items, as well as natural cosmetics, local liqueurs and things made from recycled materials. Much of it is handmade.

The market’s own website tells how it began in 1973. The management of what was then the Hotel Club Punta Arabí offered hippies living on Ibiza a place to sell their crafts. At the time there were barely five stalls, in the hotel garden. Today the market runs between the hotel buildings; the hotel is now called FERGUS Style Punta Arabí.

Alongside the stalls there are food trucks, live music from island artists and activities for children. That makes it more of a day out than just a shopping trip.

Opening times

The market takes place on Wednesdays during the season. According to the official website, these are the times for 2026:

  • April, May and October: 10:00–18:00.
  • June to September: 10:00–19:00.

The 2026 season started in April. In 2025, the season ran from 7 May to 29 October. Dates and times can change from year to year, so check the official website before you go.

Getting there and parking

The market is on Avinguda Punta Arabí in the resort of Es Canar, close to the coast. There are paid parking areas directly opposite the hotel. Keep some change handy. In high season the car park can fill up, so get there in good time.

Facilities

  • Food and drink: a dedicated food court with food trucks, plus the hotel’s restaurants and bars.
  • Live music and performances.
  • Activities for children.
  • A cash machine at the main entrance, available while the market is open.
  • Paid parking opposite the hotel.

Tips for your visit

  • Wear comfortable shoes: the market is big and you’ll do a lot of walking.
  • Bring cash; not every stall accepts debit or credit cards.
  • Come early, when it’s still cooler and easier to find a parking space.
  • Bring water and protect yourself from the sun; it can be hot in summer.
  • Take your time: with more than 400 stalls, you won’t see everything on a quick wander round.
  • Check the website beforehand to see whether a concert or performance is planned for that Wednesday.
  • If you fancy a swim afterwards, Es Canar beach is within walking distance.
