About Christmas Arts Markets

Instead of our usual two market dates, this year’s events will run over four days, taking in two weekends. Across the four days, over 150 of our hand-picked local independent artists and makers will be selling their work.

With stalls selling a wide range of goods from paintings, prints and photography through to jewellery, textiles and ceramics, there’s something for everyone.

The fully licensed Drill Hall Cafe will be open throughout selling mulled wine, teas, coffees and treat
