Christmas Markets First Look: Video & Gallery
Manchester Christmas Markets open with a flurry
BARELY had a hog been roasted or a wine mulled before the passageways of Manchester’s Christmas Markets were swarming with people. We went for a wander to capture a snippet of the first few hours of activity on video and to give you an idea of what to expect this festive season. There's a gallery down below too. Enjoy.
There are nine Manchester Christmas Market locations:
Corn Exchange, Exchange Square, New Cathedral Street, Exchange Street, St Ann's Square, King Street, Brazennose Street, Corporation Street and Albert Square (the hub).
From Friday 15 November - Sunday 22 December
Albert Square is open seven days a week from 10am - 9pm
Other market sites: November 10am - 7.30pm (bars until 9pm), December 10am - 8pm (bars until 9pm)
FREE to visit. Download the brochure here.

Why didn't you include some shots after dark - these have as much atmosphere as a church jumble sale Have you not got any romance/ poetry in your souls ?
Wow I like them, show me what's what
I like these shots David and I agree with Peter. I know you have poetry in your mind, and I'm sure it's in your soul too. ................ Do I still owe you that drink now?
Unfortunately for you Christine we wanted to give our readers a quick sneak peek within hours of the markets opening. But thanks for reading... And yes Joan you do.
Please take my challenge, and try and do a video like the one above, at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon. When its total gridlock and the number of mothers with trolly's take up more space than the stalls !
They look suspiciously like photos from last year! Or maybe the year before, or the year before that, or the year before...
