We're going to be in Barcelona 12/23-12/26. Will the Boqueria market be open any of those days?
I found a web site, but the schedule page hasn't been updated since 2022.
Thanks!

Noting La Boqueria is one of the 39 municipal fresh food markets in the city, it'll be open on the 23rd and the 24th until 8:30pm, but not the 25th and 26th.
Not just that, you can also "monitor" how busy it is in real-time: https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/mercats/en/

As a side note, Dec 26 is a public holiday in Catalonia, celebrating San Esteban (Sant Esteve/St Stephen) and it´s a very big family day, when families meet for lunch to eat canelons, a type of rolled pasta similar to canneloni, stuffed traditionally with the leftovers of Christmas lunch...or whatever the cook fancies, normally pork. Expect many places to be closed (except the touristy ones).
