Sign up now for Christmas Market

Newcastle City Council and Newcastle NE1 are working on improvements to the popular annual tradition. Plans are taking shape, and potential traders now have the opportunity to apply to be part of the festive attraction year.

Last year's event was hugely successful, with 1.76million visits to the market, marking a 28% increase on 2023, and contributing £91million to the city's economy. This year's market will run from Saturday November 15 until Tuesday December 23, with a continued focus on local businesses.
