York turns on its Christmas lights from 12 November, transforming the city centre into a festive wonderland of glitter and joy. St Nicholas’ Christmas Markets are not taking place this year, providing space for local businesses and other festive attractions which we will update as they are announced.

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 a spell-binding wizard’s wand…

Take a look at what else you can enjoy around the York Christmas Markets:

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.
