Yes, that’s the location .The fair is at the beach end of the road. 

I’ve not been down that way this week, but the stall holders said they were opening last weekend, a bit earlier than normal as it’s usually the 15th June when the market opens. The fair has been open for a good few weeks. ...

...

Both the market and the fairground close earlier during weeknights, time is dependent on how many people are around, but it will be at least midnight.  Weekends they generally stay open till 2am. Fiesta time is even later again.

Hi Lynn

 I walked down that road yesterday morning '  there wasn't much signs of life , apart from peacocks & ducks wandering along, but some of the small stalls were being 'worked on'   so opening up could be imminent,  no sign of a fair though-- maybe I was looking in the wrong place ( I dont go  down there that often ha!)

Cheers

Hi Lynn, we took a drive there last night. 60% of the funfair was open and a few of the market stalls were open. Had a lovely meal on the prom. 

Really nice evening out.

Thanks to all for the info.

Hello

 It's  a Friday morning market...Very big, very crowded ( at this time of year) & this week- very hot!! There are cafes & stalls for refreshments & good toilet facilities + lots of parking in or around the market and it really does sell everything ...Buses  are availabl...

...e from Torrevieja Interchange, nr the Harbour area.

 As a local, I never go in July/Aug because of the reasons above , but with this spike in heat right now I wont be going in June either hahaha

Cheers

 Night market in Torrevieja is  open every night.

Can you pinpoint where the market is please? Last time we were over we couldn’t find it. Lots of people said it’s that big-how did you miss it, but we did! 😁

Hello,

  Main entrance to the market is on a street called  Av Monge y Bielsa ( same street as Torrevieja Sports Centre) &  that is off Avenida  Cortes Valencianas.  It has several entrances on different streets

There’s parking on the market ground.

It’s a typical Spanish market, so you can buy clothes,  furniture, household goods,flowers, tv systems, mosquito nets, toldos , wine,  food, eat, drink, get your hair cut, manicures, pedicures etc etc
