About
The town's flagship Christmas Market fills the Market Place across the weekend of 5–6 December 2026 — 100+ producers, artisans and local businesses gathered under the Corn Hall arcade and out through the square. Expect Cotswold cheeses, cured meats, chocolatiers, wreaths and hand-crafted gifts, plus mulled wine and street food to keep spirits up.
Open Saturday 10am to 6pm and Sunday 10am to 4pm. Free to attend. Cirencester's own shops open extended hours across the weekend, and the surrounding streets are pedestrianised for the market.
In Cirencester
