That time of year has come again when Newcastle is flourishing with festivities. The Fenwick’s Christmas windows are open, the Christmas lights are glistening across the city, and the Christmas Markets are up and running. Based across Grey Street, Grainger Street and Nelson Street, there is a lot on offer this year from great food and drinks to independent market stalls. Open from the 15th of November up until the 23rd of December and spanning across three streets, it is the perfect evening activity as uni life slows down.

As per usual, the food at the markets is impeccable and always encourages a big crowd. From savoury to sweet, they have everything. Grey Street has a variety of foods from pizza to crumble, along with Greek food, sausages and burgers, mac n cheese and loaded fries at Hatch 76. Grainger Street has The Yolker (scotch eggs), Twisted Cheesecake on a Stick, authentic Spanish foods and the ever-famous Yorkshire pudding wrap among a handful of sweet treat stalls. Nelson Street has more bakery and coffee-based food stalls, perfect if you are visiting in the morning or afternoon!

With an array of independent stalls, these markets are the perfect place to purchase gifts for your family, friends or pets.
