With the market as the highlight, the UNESCO World Heritage city of Bath is fast becoming known as ‘the Christmas City’.
Each year, the beautiful area between the stunning Bath Abbey and the internationally renowned visitor attraction, the Roman Baths, is transformed into a Christmas shopper’s haven – the Bath Christmas Market. Theyare delighted to announce that the Bath Christmas Market will run for an additional 7 days this year – a total of 18 days! Dates for the Bath Christmas Market 2010 are 25th November – 12th December 2010.
In the heart of Bath’s main shopping district, 123 traditional wooden chalets adorn the streets; each one offering unique, handmade and unusual gifts, decorations and food items – everything you will need for the perfect Christmas celebration.
The sound of carols echoing around the Abbey creates an extra special atmosphere at the Bath Christmas Market. This is complimented by a full programme of entertainment at the event – carol singers, children’s entertainers and musicians that add to the festive ambience.
Its a great time of year to explore Bath, join a coach tour from London or organise a private guided tour (from London, Salisbury or Bath)

Pictures suggest, the Christmas Markets in Bath look way more busier and exciting that the others ones I have come across in the UK. The one in Bradford was a nightmare. Good to see Christmas Markets being popular in the UK influenced by the ones in Germany.
The christmas market here in Bath are a definate must must if you are down for the weekend or a little holiday. the atomesphere is so jolly and the people are all very nice. As it said it is in the centre of Bath so you can even get a bit of last minute shopping done.
