Rodeos Country Christmas Market

Rodeos BBQ B'Ham is hosting its Rodeos Country Christmas Market on Saturday 5 December, a daytime market that brings together some of the UK's leading country and western traders. It's set up under a huge outdoor canopy, so the shopping goes ahead whatever the weather. Along with the stalls, there's food, drinks and live acoustic music throughout the afternoon, so you can hang around and make a day of it rather than just popping in for a quick look.

The market also marks the launch of Rodeos' brand-new Western Store, which they're billing as the UK's biggest Western Store, stocking western clothing, boots, hats and accessories. If you've been looking for a particular piece of gear, it's a good time to see what they've got on the shelves. The whole thing runs as a daytime market, with the acoustic music going from 12:00 until 5:00, and the evening continues with a separate ticketed live country music headliner each night.

On the practical side, the market runs from 11:00 to 17:00, with last entry at 15:00, so if you're planning to arrive later in the afternoon, keep that in mind. Tickets are £10 for adults and £5 for children up to 12, both plus a booking fee, and they're sold via Skiddle. You'll find it at Rodeos BBQ B'Ham, Lakeside, 180 Lifford Lane, Kingsnorton, Birmingham, B30 3NU.
