Tips & Advice

  • Take the Metro to Colón or Banco de España, since the stalls run along Paseo de Recoletos between Colón and Cibeles.
  • Come with your gift list, because the fair is Madrid's main showcase for handmade gifts, with around 130 workshops selling things they make themselves.
  • Walk the full length of the fair to see the whole range of crafts, from ceramics and leather to hats, toys and art glass.
  • Don't leave gift shopping until the last minute, because the fair is closed on Christmas Day and has shorter hours on Christmas Eve.
  • Entry is free, so you can drop by more than once during December to browse the stalls before you decide what to buy.
