December events: Wander through a Bavarian-style village in Bristol

Hardly a weekend goes by in Bristol without a free event, market or festival. During the winter, the city makes a great budget break without compromising on the festive or fun factor.  Experience the magic of a traditional German Christmas Market in the heart of Bristol’s Shopping Quarter until the 23rd December.

Enchanting wooden chalets decorated with festive greenery, tasty treats and beer gardens ooze with Christmas spirit. Make sure to also check out Christmas at St Nicholas Markets, open throughout December, and the 50-stall Harbourside Christmas Market for award-winning preserves, gins and more.
