York Christmas Market (St Nicholas Fair)
An outdoor street market of alpine chalets running through the centre of York, with over 80% of traders based in Yorkshire. It is a walk-through event with no ticket, so it suits families of any age, though the streets get very busy at weekends and a buggy can be awkward after dark. Wrap up warmly and go on a weekday morning if you have younger children.
📅 12 Nov – 21 Dec
📍 Parliament Street & St Sampson's Square, York city centre
