MARKETS

Manchester's award-winning Christmas Markets returns this winter offering mouth-watering international food, drinks and delicately crafted Yuletide gifts... Launched in 1999 as just a single site in St Ann's Square, the markets are now a sprawling and hugely popular festive attraction that attract millions of visitors each year... The main market hub will again be based in Albert Square, in front of Manchester Town Hall, where the wooden stalls will remain open for an extra day, until December 21.
