Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

St Nicholas Fair in York isn't great, but it means York is a no go zone for the last weekend in November.

Luckily I'll be elsewhere.

I thought Manchester's was the biggest? I went around Birmingham's last year, plus I was in Manchester for a job for three months directly overlooking theirs!

I'm going back to the Borough market before Christmas hits for a shopping expedition. That place is bloody marvelous and is one thing missing from up here in Nottingham

Manchester and Birmingham have good ones but it all depends on how far you are prepared to travel.

The one in Brum always used to be good (not been for a good few years) and is one of the few things I miss about Birmingham.

Hyde Park is crap from a market point of view but we went last year and enjoyed the fair and circus!

They're very samey

Not keen on them

Then again, I don't drink or eat sausages

So that's 80% of the stalls being of no interest to me

Manchester's German Markets are great! I was intending to arrange a social there at the end of the month but - as someone pointed out - it get's incredibly busy and a large group of people would never be able to walk round together! xx

I find that with Manchester's German market. It's good but not a patch on the real thing.

And yes I've been to both at Christmas.

Our council don't really have one, they just allow beer and food stalls, with a couple of gift stalls in the precinct. they block off nearly all the seats so nowhere to sit apart from the stalls if you buy their food

Like others have said, Bath's Christmas Market is really good and a lovely place to visit. There is so much to see, brilliant shopping plus the best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. Also has a fantastic spa, one of my favourites.

Worcester has a smaller one, but a lovely atmosphere and I really like it as a city, so will definitely visit their market this year.
