Visit York’s Christmas Markets: 17 Nov- 23 Dec 2022

York gets into the Festive Christmas spirit from the big Christmas lights switch-on in November. 100’s of brightly decorated Scandanavian style chalets then open for St Nicholas’ markets, transforming the city centre into a festive wonderland of glitter and joy. Around Parliament Square, St Sampson’s Square and throughout the city you’ll find a treasure trove of festive treats and Christmas gifts.
Beautifully decorated for Christmas, the Medieval Shambles and Shambles Market are a must-visit. Festive Music, choirs and speciality markets feature at weekends throughout December. Who knows, ‘Santa Claus’ might just find that special Christmas gift…

And there’s so much more to Christmas in York than shopping. Barley Hall Medieval Town House opens its doors to show how York townsfolk would have prepared for the Christmas Festivities in bygone days. It is also a special time to visit York Minster for a Christmas Carol or Advent concert. Then, there is the joy of seasonal entertainment at the city’s theatres.
