Step into Christmas here!

20 November 2024

This year Canterbury Cathedral is hosting a Christmas market in the Precincts, the first time since 1813

In addition to 20 twinkling stalls, you'll find a carousel, mini golf, and cosy indoor seating to enjoy a mulled wine or hot chocolate. The Canterbury Christmas market continues in St George's Street and Whitefriars, with over 95 festive huts in total and a variety of fun activities.

Our guided tours are running daily at 11am & 2pm, an ideal way to see the sights and discover Canterbury's rich history before immersing yourself in the festive ambience of the market!
