Booking.comCheltenham Christmas markets were born from a tradition started in Gloucestershire in 2008 when local farmers and villagers started selling their crafts, food, and drinks on the streets every third Saturday of the month. Any vendor can contact the organisers to apply for a spot where they can set up a market.
With the town council on board, there is an abundance of Christmas lights, and pedestrians have access to the beautifully placed stalls along the promenades to buy all types of merchandise. To encourage creativity and an assortment of merchandise, the board is exceptionally lenient regarding what can be sold.
