Oxford Christmas markets set to follow food festival

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 20 Oct, 21:02 · Archive

Oxford will host two Christmas markets in Broad Street following the Oxford Food and Drink Festival.

The Oxford Food and Drink Festival, which ran from 9 October to this past Sunday, has concluded its stint in Broad Street. The city council arranges a series of festivals on the street through LSD Promotions, with stalls occupying half the street nearest Cornmarket.

Two Christmas markets will follow. The Oxford Victorian Christmas Market runs from Thursday, 12 November to Sunday, 15 November. The main Christmas market then begins on Saturday, 21 November and continues throughout December until Thursday, 31 December.

The main Christmas market has been run by Keston Events in recent years. It will feature stalls selling sausages, mulled wines and other festive treats, accompanied by a temporary two-storey Alpine lodge-style pub. The Christmas market in Broad Street is an established tradition, though its management has changed over recent years.

Broad Street traders are accustomed to hosting multiple outdoor markets during this period of the year.
