Christmas

Manchester’s award-winning Christmas Markets have returned this winter offering mouth-watering international food, drinks and delicately crafted festive gifts in the heart of this buzzing city.

With more than 300 stalls and chalets spread across the city centre, the Christmas Markets are free and accessible to all.

Are you looking for something different to do this winter? Why not celebrate the festive season with Santa Claus himself this Christmas, by taking a fantastic Santa Cruise on the Manchester Ship Canal!

Canterbury is establishing itself as a leading Christmas market destination and launches its first outdoor ice-skating rink this year with its traditional Christmas market which has doubled in size.

Thousands of shoppers flock to the city at Christmas and visitors can immerse themselves into the festive season against the picture-postcard backdrop of historic buildings and cobbled streets. A new downloadable guide called Canterbury made for Christmas has also launched this year making trips even easier with top tips of where to go and what to do.
