The Victorian Christmas market will be followed by Oxford City Christmas Market, which will run from November 30 to December 23, also in Broad Street.

This will feature a mix of local arts and crafts, food stalls and gifts.

Each year the market is filled with a distinctive range of artisan ceramics, textiles, homewares, leather goods, jewellery, toys, stationery, bags, hats, and more.
