Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on market days, especially for the popular Christmas dates, to get the best selection from the over 120 vendors.
- Check the specific market dates and times for November and December, as some are evening markets (3 PM - 9 PM) perfect for a festive night out.
- Bring cash for smaller vendors, although many may accept card payments. This ensures you don't miss out on any unique finds.
- If bringing a dog, be mindful of the market's rules and ensure your pet is well-behaved, as it's a busy environment.
- Explore the 'What's On' section for specific dates like 'The Gift Bazaar' and 'The Night Market Before Xmas' to plan your visit.
