Marcadieu Market
Come and taste the products of our terroir from the stalls of Marcadieu market, one of the biggest farmers’ markets in south-west France.
This Baltard-style indoor market was built in 1883 and is an unmissable, historic place for local farmers and producers to come and sell their products.
There’s a great atmosphere here, and everyone wears the traditional beret!

The Tarbes experience
Stop by one of the outdoor terraces near the market for a cup of home-roasted coffee, a sharing platter of local specialities with a glass of Madiran, or a local dish such as the legendary ‘garbure‘ stew with Haricots Tarbais at one of the many restaurants in the town.
Brauhauban Market
You can expect good products and a welcoming atmosphere in the town centre at Brauhauban market, the town’s 2nd biggest market, open all week.
You can taste the top-quality products and then take some home with you.
It is also the perfect area for lunch in the sun out on the terrace!
