Monthly outdoor market with more than 80 independent makers and artisans selling handmade art, craft and food in Exchange Square.
Chester Makers Market returns to Exchange Square on Saturday 5 December, running from 10:00am to 4:00pm. It's an outdoor market run by The Makers Market, and it takes place right outside the new Chester market hall and in front of the town hall, in the heart of the city's Roman centre.
There are more than 80 stallholders gathered each month, and every one of them is an independent maker. You'll find handmade art, craft, food and drink, with street food and live music running alongside. The whole thing is built around supporting the local community by bringing together independent makers and artisans, and every maker produces quality, artisan goods. It's the kind of setup where you can wander among the makers, bakers and creators and buy directly from the people who actually made the things on the stalls.

The site is outdoors but mostly covered and flat, so it works for wheelchair users and pushchairs, and dogs are welcome. If you're coming from further afield, Chester train station is about a 15-minute walk away and the Chester Northgate bus stop is around six minutes. Entry is free, and the market runs from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
