From its humble beginnings as a traditional German Christmas market in 1982 with just 11 stalls, the market now welcomes visitors from across the world to get into the festive spirit, seeing over 270,000 people visit over the four-day event in 2021. A number of new elements to the market are also being launched this year including a stage element, which will see performances from musicians, choirs and theatre groups throughout the weekend.

BBC Radio Lincolnshire will also be bringing something very different to the 2022 market – for Dr Who fans, a real Dalek will be around saying hello to those who pass it! And for Strictly Come Dancing fans, visitors will have the opportunity to see the 2010 winning dress, which was worn by actress Kara Tointon.

If Leeds wants to rival Manchester it needs a proper Christmas marketWhat impression does cancelling the German Christmas Market for a third year give? A Christmas market doesn’t make a city better 🤬 That’s the problem, Leeds councillors and MP’s have zero ambition. Voted down investment in the airport (while MAN just completed a £1bn expansion) and now they decided against even having a German market. They’re a pathetic bunch that should be heavily criticised!!
