Situated on Market Street, Granby Road and Riverside Crescent, step into a winter wonderland of festive delights at the Bakewell Xmas Market. This ultimate guide will ensure you don’t miss out on a single seasonal treat. From handmade crafts to delicious food and drink, this market has it all.

Not every market sits in the heart of a national park. Backdropped by the River Wye and honey‑coloured Derbyshire stone, Bakewell’s annual Christmas Market feels like a scene from The Holiday – minus the Hollywood crowds. You’ll find:

• Peak District provenance: almost every stallholder hails from Derbyshire, Sheffield or the High Peak, so gifts really are “made round here”.

• Family‑friendly vibes: roaming carollers, fairground rides and the chance to meet real rescue owls add sparkle for tots and teens alike.

• Easy to explore: compact street layout means no long walks between zones, ideal for grandparents and little legs.
