shopping
markets
Do a little shopping in Wrexham and you’ll
notice something pretty quickly. We like to
chat. It comes with being a market town.
For hundred of years this has been the place
where England and Wales meet to exchange
goods and gossip. And we’re still doing it.
Although since the 19th century we’ve mostly
been doing it indoors.
Wrexham has three covered markets. With
more than 100 stalls selling everything from
sausages and steak to furniture and fashion.
And most of them just waiting for the excuse
to start a chinwag.
In Wrexham virtually every day is market day.
(We still like to have Sunday off to catch our
breath.) So the Butchers’ Market, General
Market and People’s Market are all open
Monday to Saturday - although the first two
do close early on a Wednesday.
We still like to get out into the fresh air, too.
Every Monday in Queens Square we hold one
of the largest outdoor markets in North
Wales.
And every once in a while we spread our
wings with a French and Continental Market.
Where the conversations are particularly
interesting.
