Popular Winter Market Returns To Holker Hall

 
Holker Hall & Gardens are once again inviting people to visit one of the county’s biggest Winter Markets later this year.

Taking place over three days from Friday 3 to Saturday 5 November, the now annual event will see well over one hundred stalls and is expected to attract thousands of visitors.

And for the first time, on Friday evening the market will run until 7pm, giving people the chance to enjoy a little twilight shopping and a glass of mulled wine.

Fran Horne, head of visitor services, said:
“Our Winter Market has grown in popularity since it first started and we attract a huge variety of stalls with everything from arts and crafts to homeware, handmade gifts and more besides.

“We also have a brilliant range of live music across the weekend, plus children’s entertainment, and anyone visiting the market can also explore the hall itself.

“We know the Winter Market is hugely popular with our visitors and we’re looking forward to welcoming old and new faces back to Holker Hall and Gardens for 2023.”


For those wanting to keep their little ones entertained while they do a spot of festive shopping, Bread and Butter Theatre will be on hand with colourful characters to surprise and delight.

And, as well as browsing for special gifts, visitors can enjoy mulled wine, locally produced ales and delicious sweet and savoury treats from a variety of street food vendors.

The market is open from 12 midday to 7pm on Friday, 10am to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday.

Tickets for the Holker Hall and Gardens Winter Market are £6.50 in advance or £7.50 on the day, and include free parking and entry to the hall itself.
