Stratford-upon-Avon Christmas Markets 2024

Less than a week to go! Stratford-on-Avon District Council, in partnership with LSD Promotions and Stratford-upon-Avon Town Council, is thrilled to announce a fresh look for its renowned Christmas Markets for 2024.

With 200 high-quality stalls on Waterside, Henley Street and Bridge Street, the markets remain some of the largest in the West Midlands, promising a truly special shopping experience. Taking place over two consecutive weekends, on 7th & 8th and 14th & 15th December (Saturday 12-8pm, Sunday 10am-5pm), this allows visitors to experience the markets on what are traditionally the most popular days, and the midweek traffic congestion in the town will be significantly reduced.

Roads fully closed will be:

• Bridge Street
• Waterside

Please note that there will be changes to traffic flow in:

• High Street (one way towards Barclays Roundabout) (no parking)
• Union Street (no parking)

Wood Street will be open both ways, but egress will be down Union Street only as there will be no vehicular access to other streets.

Sheep Street will be open, but Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) measures will be in place adjacent to Waterside.

We encourage visitors, using their own transport, to use the Stratford-upon-Avon Park & Ride in Bishopton. Normal Park & Ride charges will apply on each of these days.
