Step back in time and visit a festive market in a fairytale-setting

Manchester’s very own Christmas markets have now opened to the public, with dozens of stalls lining the city’s streets and squares, selling everything from Yorkshire pudding wraps to garden decorations. Thousands of visitors will descend upon the city in the coming weeks and many more across the UK will host their own.

The hall provides a majestic setting for its annual Mercatum Christmas Artisan Markets, held over five long weekends in the run up to the big day, launching on Wednesday, November 13th. It brings together more than 245 artisans and makers, including ceramicists, artists, chocolatiers, candle makers and perfumers.This year’s market promises to be “bigger, better and more captivating than ever”.

New for this year, Haddon’s Stable Studio will offer daily craft demonstrations, including basket weaving, wreath making, card printing and Christmas table decoration making. The sessions are completely free to attend and visitors are invited to drop in throughout the day. Lady Edward Manners said: “Our Mercatum Christmas Artisan Market has grown in stature over the past few years, due to the quality of our wonderfully talented and carefully curated artisans and makers, and because this event gives visitors the chance to both shop and see the hall in all its festive glory. There’s so much to experience and enjoy this year, and with more dates available, we’re looking forward to welcoming visitors from far and wide.
