Durham Christmas Festival 2026

calendar09:00 Friday, 04 December 2026 to 16:30 Sunday, 06 December 2026

Craft & Producers' Marquee, Palace Green



Advance ticket sales are now available.  Tickets will still be available to purchase on the marquee door.

In the marquee, there are over 120 stalls, and a wonderful selection of artwork, handcrafted gifts, seasonal decorations, homewares, clothing, festive food and drink. 

Browse the stalls and chat to the stall holders.  They know all about what they’re selling – and in many cases have handcrafted what you’ll find on the stall. 

In addition, this year, between the Marquee and the Cathedral, we shall have a number of street food traders where you can relax and refuel – take a seat and enjoy live Christmassy music here too.

Marquee Opening Hours:

Friday 4th December: 9am - 6pm

Saturday 5th December: 9am - 6pm

Sunday 6th December: 9am - 4.30pm

As this is a ticketless event, please bring a copy of your booking confirmation you received when you placed the order, this can either be printed or saved on your phone, to show at the door.
