The magical Bath Christmas Market is returning to the wonderful city of Bath between Thursday 28th November and Sunday 15th December. With over 200 stallholders, festive entertainment, and the backdrop of Bath's beautiful Georgian streets, it's not going to be one to miss.
Where is Bath Christmas Market?
Bath Christmas Market is an open-air, free event situated right in the heart of the World Heritage City of Bath. Our event transforms the beautiful city into a sea of twinkling lights, with the aroma of festive food and drink lining the streets, and wonderful chalets and places to explore on every corner. We are lucky enough to be nestled amongst Bath's iconic architecture, surrounding the Roman Baths, Bath Abbey, and Bath's famous Thermae Spa, to name a few.
How do I get to Bath?
We'd always recommend travelling by public transport where you can. Bath has direct transport links to many major cities including Cardiff, Reading, Southampton, London, and Bristol. If you want to travel by car, the Park and Ride services offer an increased service throughout the event, and the bus stop is right by the market so you don't have to carry your shopping bags far!
