Stamford’s Christmas Market is back and bigger than ever!

This year we’ve extended the market into St Mary’s Street, meaning we can offer more than 150 stalls selling a fantastic array of products from independent traders on November 30th (10am until 5pm).

St George’s Square will be transformed into an entertainment hub, offering live performances, crafts, airbrush tattoos and a snow globe photo booth. There will be seating available for festive shoppers to take a break and enjoy the programme of entertainment on offer. You can find Santa’s Grotto in St Michael’s Churchyard and traditional fairground entertainment will also be on offer.

Market stalls and food and drink vendors are available throughout the town on Broad Street, the High Street, Ironmonger Street and St Mary’s Street, and there will be additional roaming festive entertainment throughout the market, including Santa’s Airforce, a pedal-powered flying machine!

Free parking is available in all SKDC car parks and this year we’re thrilled to share that Stamford College is offering free spaces for market shoppers. Please access the car park via Drift Road from 9:30am until 5:30pm this Sunday – the postcode is PE9 1XA/ hobby.windy.fired on what3words.

Road closures are in place on Broad Street, Red Lion Street, Star Lane, Maiden Lane, the High Street, Ironmonger Street, St Mary’s Street, St George’s Street and St Mary’s Hill from 6pm Saturday 29th November.
