BOURNEMOUTH'S Christmas market has come to town, bringing the festive spirit along with it. The market is located in the town centre. It boasts various independent stalls selling food, drinks and gifts.

The market will open for Christmas from 11am to 11pm daily and closes its doors in the new year.

In 2023, the market pushed for inclusivity for special dietary requirements, including gluten- and dairy-free options.
