About

Putting a distinctly Yorkshire stamp on the traditional Christmas market experience the Harrogate Christmas Market has a strong focus on regionally made products, bringing the best of home-made and fairly traded Christmas goods to the heart of Harrogate for 4 days of festive cheer, absolutely free for everyone!

UPDATE:  Sadly the decision has been made not to hold the ever popular Harrogate Christmas Market in 2020.  Due to complexities of Coronavirus measures organisers decided this is the responsible decision, but want all their regular visitors to know Harrogate will be open for Christmas shopping this year and from 12 November the Christmas lights will be on.  You can stil purchase from the market exhibitors and a list of those can be found here.  

There is entertainment for the whole family with fun fair rides, live music from local groups and street musicians, all adding to the thriving and joyful atmosphere that fills the walkways of stalls.

Stall holders at the Christmas market have been selected with care to ensure an even and broad mix of gifts and treats from local and regional producers, artists and crafters.  

As well as outdoor stalls along the walkways two large marquees provide covered areas focusing on Crafts and Gifts, and Food and Drink.  So be sure to take a few minutes to enjoy something tasty and soak up the atmosphere.

The Harrogate Christmas Market showcases the very best of what Yorkshire has to offer and provides a great day out to visitors.

A very special guest, Father Christmas, has his own grotto at the Market for all four days, and he’ll be bringing his reindeer with him for children to see outside.

The Harrogate Christmas market is free to attend and easy to get to.  There is a choice of on-street and off-street parking nearby and a free shuttle bus service runs regularly between Stand 1 at Harrogate Bus Station, in the town centre.

Once you’ve arrived at the Harrogate Christmas Market you are in the heart of Harrogate’s stylish Montpellier Quarter, just a short walk from wonderful shops, cafes and galleries.  

There are also several hotels within just a few hundred metres, so why not make a weekend of it and stay a night or even two?  
With the Christmas lights being switched on to coincide with the market, Harrogate Christmas Market will get your Christmas off to a cracking start.
