The popular Christmas Market returns to Cheltenham Promenade
A wide range of festive crafts and gifts will come back to Cheltenham’s Promenade this year when the Christmas market returns on Friday 16 November.
The familiar wooden chalets will be situated in the Promenade until Sunday 2 December, offering seasonal food, jewellery, candles, knitwear, handmade children’s toys and many other gift ideas. The market, now in its ninth year, promises to be even more impressive with over 40 stalls and the best selection of traders. It offers an excellent opportunity for Christmas shopping with a difference.
Martin Quantock, Cheltenham business partnership manager, says: "Everyone starts getting into the seasonal spirit when the Cheltenham Christmas Market comes to town. There will be new stalls and a greater variety of foods on offer to tempt customers, along with the usual bratwurst, gluwein and German beers.
“The market brings in many visitors from far and wide and the local town centre businesses will benefit from the higher footfall. I hope everyone will enjoy the special festive atmosphere that the market brings to the town."
The market will be trading seven days a week from Friday 16 November to Sunday 2 December (10am-6pm Monday-Wednesday; 10am-8pm Thursday-Saturday; and 11am-5pm Sundays).
The market is being organised by Cheltenham Borough Council, in partnership with Geraud Markets (UK) Ltd and Cheltenham Business Partnership.
