Seasonal farmers market and dedicated makers market with Yorkshire independent traders, crafts and local produce in Harrogate town centre.
Harrogate Farmers & Makers Markets are back in Harrogate Town Centre from Saturday 5 December to Saturday 19 December. It's a run of seasonal food, local produce, crafts and gifts spread across the town centre, and since it's the lead-up to Christmas, it's a good time to get your shopping sorted.
The Makers Market side of things was launched in the summer of 2025 by Harrogate's Business Improvement District (BID) in partnership with Real Markets, the operator behind the town's long-established Farmers Market. It was set up as the town's first dedicated makers market, designed to showcase Harrogate's independent sector, support local creators and bring more footfall into the town centre on what is typically a quieter trading day. Since then, it's become a firm favourite in the town's events calendar, with traders and customers alike giving it overwhelmingly positive feedback.
It sits alongside the monthly Harrogate Farmers Market, which has run on Cambridge Street on the second Thursday of the month for twenty years. The stalls are staffed exclusively by Yorkshire-based independent traders, which keeps food miles down and leans into the town's spa heritage and agricultural surroundings. Between the two, you'll find seasonal food, local produce, and a range of crafts and gifts.
