Celebrate Christmas with our traditional festive market and sparkling lights in the medieval city and cathedral grounds
One of the most magical festive shopping experiences in the country – Canterbury’s traditional Christmas Market will open on 15th November to 24th December 2024.
Our market comprises traditional wooden huts in the German-style, selling incredible gifts and treats, along with stalls churning out great food, warm and cold drinks, beers and mulled wine, German sausages, and more! All adorned with beautiful lights.
Canterbury Christmas Market can be found in various locations around the City of Canterbury in Kent, England, all within the city walls, in the heart of the city. This year there are three sections to the Christmas Market because for the first time in over 200 years, a festive market returns to Canterbury Cathedral.
