Get into the Christmas spirit as Marshall’s Yard hosts magical two-day festive market

25 November 2024

Shoppers are invited to get into the Christmas spirit and visit a magical two-day festive market at Marshall’s Yard.

The centre will be full of festive cheer for the fayre on Saturday and Sunday (November 30 and December 1) between 10am and 3pm.

The event will feature more than 20 traders selling lovingly hand-crafted gifts that would make a perfect stocking filler for a friend or relative.

There will also be festive crafting sessions, live entertainment, food and drink stalls and free face painting.

The Rock Choir will take to the stage on Saturday for a live performance from Noon.

There will also be free face painting between 11am and 3pm, and youngsters will get the chance to meet Santa in his Grotto between 11am and 2pm, on both days. 

Shoppers visiting will also be able to marvel at the centre’s stunning Christmas illuminations, including the centrepiece Reindeer in the fountains area.

Melissa Clement, Centre Manager at Marshall’s Yard, said: “We are really into the main Christmas shopping season now and this event is a brilliant opportunity to pick up a personalised gift that will make someone’s Christmas Day morning extra special.”

The event has kindly been supported by McDonalds (Bomead Gainsborough) as the main sponsor, alongside other sponsors Mercedez Benz of Lincoln, Wright Vigar and Stallard Kane Associates.

David Goodall, Director for Wright Vigar – a firm of chartered accountants – said: “It is a pleasure to support the event and we are sure everyone will leave with a smile on their face and excited for Christmas.”

Carl Currie, Operations Director at Stallard Kane Associates – which specialises in health & safety, human resources, training and compliance – added: “Marshall’s Yard looks wonderful at this time of year and we hope everyone has a fantastic festive time.”

The festive fun will continue at Marshall’s Yard with a whole host of fun events right up to the big day.

This includes a festive farm featuring cute farm animals on the weekend of December 7 and 8, followed by a visit from Naughty Eric the Elf who will be bringing lots of smiles, laughter and a little bit of mayhem on December 14.

Visitors can also meet Santa in his Grotto on December 7 and 8, December 14 and 15 and on December 21.

Parking will be available in Marshall's Yard, and our overflow car park in Station Approach is available for all day parking for only £1.
