Best Christmas Markets in London 2019

There are only two weeks left before Christmas and London has dived deep into the Christmas spirit with a number of winter markets chock-full of mulled wine and mince pies that you should definitely check out!

There are Bavarian beer halls, street food extravaganzas, fondue igloos and plenty of other wintry delights to be had.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re staying central or venturing to some of the other neighbourhoods, there’s a whole heap of London Christmas markets, stalls and winter wonderlands for you to find.

So, pull on your coziest Christmas jumper, grab your Santa hats and go down to one of these festive markets.

1.) Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park

Winter Wonderland is the best known festive extravaganza in London, drawing in thousands of people from around the country each year. There are loads going on, but the best place to get the traditional Christmas market experience is in the Bavarian Village. It’s packed with cafes and serving up the kind of fare you’d find in a winter market over in Germany — bratwurst, flame-grilled salmon, mulled wine and the like. There’s also a huge for the adults to indulge in some boozy refreshment. Elsewhere, there’s much more to fuel the merriment, from rollercoasters and to stand-up comedy and circuses.

2.) Borough Market

Although Borough Market is consistently in London as a year-round market, there’s something so special about a visit during Christmas.

Better yet, Borough Market extends their opening hours to enjoy some chilled out evenings of sweet treats, eggnog, mulled wine and piping hot turkey and cranberry rolls.

On top of that, Borough Market will be hosting a heap of events throughout December and in the run-up to Christmas.

3.) Leicester Square Market

Leicester Square is probably one of the busiest spots in central London, but don’t let that put you off. If you don’t have the time to get to Winterville or Winter Wonderland, pop over to Leicester Square to experience one of the smaller London Christmas markets.

Now, there’s might only be around 30 stalls and a small fair in the square, the thing that makes Leicester Square Christmas market is the shows. This year, you can watch shows like; the Burlesque Carol Concert, Briefs: Close Encounter and Brat Kids Carnival.
