Update on Stratford-upon-Avon Christmas Market

Press Release

Published on 10 December 2024


Officials from Stratford-on-Avon District Council and Stratford-upon-Avon Town Council have agreed alternative dates for holding the Christmas Market, following the postponement of the first weekend on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 December due to Storm Darragh.

The postponed Christmas Market will now take place on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 December and will be held along Waterside and in Henley Street.

There will be no road closure of Bridge Street for this alternative weekend of markets.

 

The Stratford-upon-Avon Christmas Market scheduled to take place this weekend on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 December is still going ahead as planned.

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.

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