Christmas Market,Belfast,Expansion

Belfast City Council is exploring the possibility of expanding its popular Christmas market in future years. While the council received positive feedback about the market's atmosphere, some councillors expressed concerns about overcrowding and the need to engage with vendors and attendees for potential expansion.

Belfast Council is to look at extending the Christmas Market in future years, while a councillor at City Hall has spoken of fears that its “cramped and crowded” nature could “start to put people off.”

The minutes state: “During discussion, members suggested the need to increase the potential of council parks to hold more markets across the city, together with the expansion of the Christmas market. “It is one of the number one questions we get as councillors, about tickets for the Christmas lights turn-on, and there will be a positive process around that this year, based on the feedback from last year.

“But it is clear to me that the site just at the front of the City Hall is no longer enough for the type of activity that is taking place there. My continued fear is that we reach a peak of success with the Christmas Market, and because it becomes so cramped and crowded, that it starts to put people off.
