One of our favourite things about the festive period is the Christmas markets & they are all starting in the next week or so (if they haven’t already)! Is there anything better than getting wrapped up, eating lots of delicious food & shopping with lots of small businesses? We have put together a list of the best UK Christmas markets so hopefully there is one local to you on this list for you to check out. We’ve also included the dates they are running AND their exact locations to make it easier for you.
Make sure to follow us on Instagram where we will be sharing our Christmas market visits!

Are you planning to visit any Christmas markets this year? Which is your favourite?
I absolutely love Christmas markets! I live in Leeds, and the main Christmas market is cancelled this year, so when I saw this blog post, I had to check it out to see if there are any other markets I could attend!
I love the combination of food and shopping as well, especially the markets with new small businesses, as they usually sell such sweet Christmas gifts.
Thank you for including the exact location for these markets. I’ll be suggesting the Manchester and York ones to my friends, to see if they want to attend those!
Thank you for the suggestions! I will hopefully be going to a Christmas market this year. 😁 🎄
The Christmas-themed marketplaces in the UK are so beautiful. I wish I could go there someday. Hope there were more pics for me to browse haha. Thanks for sharing!
