What are our Christmas Carts? 🎄✨

Our Christmas Carts are 3 or 4-day lets specifically reserved for small, local micro-businesses that may not have attended Bath Christmas Market before but want to try their hand at the festive experience.

These are a fantastic option for anyone who can't commit to a longer-term let or if you have a passion you want to trial on a larger scale.

Applications are now open until 8th May!

Every year, Bath Christmas Market provides a platform for a number of local charities and community groups to raise vital funds for their projects.

We have two chalets available for charities to use free of charge each day the market is running. If you're a charity or community group looking to spread the word about the fantastic work you're doing, apply for one of our Community Chalets.

🐶Dogs🐶

We know that spending time with your pup is an important part of the festive period, and we love seeing so many good boys and girls around.

However, the hustle and bustle of the market can be quite stressful for dogs. We are expecting the next few weekends to be extremely busy so we would strongly advise leaving dogs at home if you can, or come along in the mid-week when it tends to be a bit quieter.

Did you know that Bath has three Park and Ride services? ✨🚌

The Park and Ride services in Bath run more frequently during the Christmas Market and run for extended hours so that you can get the most out of your shopping experience. If you're planning to drive in, we really recommend the Park and Ride as the city centre car parks can fill up very quickly.
