When Manchester Made Market hit the town back in May, it was an absolute bank holiday success, so much so, it’s now coming back with a Christmas night market for one weekend only. The market will provide an alternative to the huge, often chaotic Manchester Christmas Markets, offering all the cosy vibes and Christmas shopping opportunities, without so much of the footfall.
Taking place once again at New Jackson from Friday 6th − Sunday 8th December, the new urban neighbourhood nestled at the southern gateway to the city, Manchester Made Market will offer a cosy and magical Christmas night market experience, brimming with food, drink, live music and even a grotto for visits to Father Christmas.
Expect Christmas trees galore glittering with festoon lighting and one huge, picture perfect, show-stopping tree taking centre stage, creating a magical setting for this unique community event. Bringing together over 40 artisanal traders and small businesses from across the region, this three-day event will showcase a plethora of food produce, homewares, crafts and creations, where visitors will be sure to find unique Christmas gifts that support local businesses.
Trader highlights include: The Cole Men, who will be bringing their award winning sauces to the masses; Moon & Sixpence with their beautiful handmade jewellery; fine art photography by Craig Barker; plus Root 2 Ginger with their premium ginger drinks with a kick, to name just a few. What’s more, get fully in the Christmas spirit with live music from an amazing 20-piece choir providing the perfect Christmas soundtrack. The market’s exclusive music line-up promises something special for all ages, protected from the elements in a snug stretch tent.
Manchester Made Christmas Market is free for all to attend. For all the organised people, there’s a limited guest list where visitors can pre-register for free and enjoy 50% off a hot chocolate to warm you up on arrival − sign up here. You can book a slot for Santa’s grotto here.
Open from 4pm to 9pm on Friday 6th December, and 1pm to 9pm on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th December, the Christmas Manchester Made Market is perfect for getting together with friends and family and celebrating the festive season.
