Winter Christmas market with food and drink stalls, artisan and craft stalls and the Big Wheel at Broadgate.
The Coventry Christmas Market is back at Broadgate this winter, running from 13 November 2026 right through to 3 January 2027. It's open every day from 10am until late, though it does close on Christmas Day and New Year's Day, so keep that in mind if you're planning a bank holiday trip. The market is run by Coventry City Council in partnership with Visit Coventry and Coventry BID.
The food and drink stalls are the main draw here, and they're a proper mix of the classics and some more substantial bits. You'll find mulled wine and toasted marshmallows for the sweet side of things, and crepes for when you need a proper snack. On the savoury end, there's flame-grilled BBQ, a German swing grill, Tennessee fried chicken, and Yorkshire pudding wraps. It's the kind of spread that works just as well for a quick bite while you're shopping as it does for a full lunch out with friends.
Alongside the food, there are artisan and craft stalls to wander through, and the Big Wheel is back too, which is a good spot to get a view over the city centre. The market returns each winter to Broadgate, and they describe this year's as bigger and brighter than before.
