Festive Ely Markets bring Christmas spirit to the heart of the city

Reference: 

Ely Markets will raise the city’s Christmas spirit with an array of festive markets throughout next week.

Christmas Mini-Markets will open on the 18th, 19th and 20th December from 10am until 3pm on Ely Market Place.  This provides an opportunity for last-minute present buying, as well as a chance to indulge in the variety of food and gift stalls available.

As well as the Mini-Markets, the annual Special Christmas Market takes place on Friday 22nd December from 8.30am to 3.30pm, with a fantastic selection of favourite and festive stalls including unique crafts, artisan food & drink, streetfood, vintage and Farmers Market producers plus seasonal gifts and entertainment.  Look out for the very special visitor all the way from the North Pole.

These extra-special events are in addition to Ely Markets’ regular weekly Charter Market on Thursdays, Craft, Food & Vintage Market on Saturdays and Christmas Eve Sunday Market which will all be taking place as scheduled with a festive sparkle. 

Emma Grima, Commercial Director for East Cambs Trading Company, said: “We are so excited to hold these additional festive markets for residents and visitors to enjoy. We hope that they will add to the Christmas spirit in the city and provide a unique option when buying presents for loved ones.”  

There are a range of free short-term and long-term car parking options in the city, enabling people to enjoy what Ely has to offer.
