Sat 5 December until Thurs 24 December
Old Market Square
10am to 9pm daily
Nottingham Christmas Market – a collection of market stalls, traditional rides, and take away refreshment stalls is designed to be enjoyed by all ages.
The market will be overlooked by a 32m high observation wheel – an ideal vantage point to safely watch the Christmas festivities and the Christmas tree standing at over 18m, sparkling below.
Approximately 40 chalet-style market stalls will offer a chance for some alternative Christmas shopping with a choice of gifts, crafts, and speciality foods. The stalls will be spread right across Old Market Square as well as on Long Row and half way down Smithy Row to offer a generous amount of space to ensure social distancing for shoppers, and for queues.
While it will be a disappointment to many that Winter Wonderland is unable to return, several much-loved elements will remain.
The thrilling Ice Mountain toboggan slide returns to offer a chance to career down King Street, and the traditional carousel returns for fun at a more sedate pace. There will also be a helter skelter to ride with an opportunity to get into the Christmas spirit with a non-alcoholic mulled wine at the bottom.
