SKIPTON<br />

For a small market town in North Yorkshire, Skipton<br />

punches well above its weight when it comes to their<br />

eight day Christmas Market.<br />

The stalls will be packed full of hand-made gifts including<br />

Christmas decorations, wooden furniture for the home<br />

and beauty products like bath bombs and hand-made<br />

soap. There will also be plenty of food and drink products<br />

from local artisans including baked goods, Belgian<br />

chocolate, craft beer and chilli sauces.<br />

The market stalls can be found throughout the town<br />

centre and live entertainment helps to spread the<br />

Christmas cheer. At 4pm each day, the market closes and<br />

there is a procession up the high street to the church<br />

grounds where a traditional carol is sung to mark the end<br />

of a magical day at a Christmas market.<br />

The Skipton Christmas Market runs from Sunday 5th<br />

<strong>Dec</strong>ember to Sunday 12th <strong>Dec</strong>ember
