Bath Christmas Market fills the Georgian streets around Bath Abbey with twinkling chalets selling gifts, decorations and seasonal food and drink. The 2026 market runs from Thursday 26 November to Sunday 13 December inclusive.

The organisers describe it as an open-air, free event – there is no entry charge and no ticket, you simply walk in from the city centre. Weekends are very busy, so weekday daytime visits are the most relaxed.

Bath is easy to reach by train (Bath Spa station is a few minutes’ walk away) and Park & Ride buses run from the edge of the city during the market.
