Are you feeling festive yet? The countdown to Christmas is looming closer and if you’re not decking the halls with boughs of holly then there’s something very special going on in Leeds that can help bring in that helping hand of festive cheer. A Winter Wonderland extravaganza has taken over the historical Kirkstall Abbey location, with unique markets, food and drink stalls, live music from the Hyde Park Brass - Leeds’ party-starting brass band, singing in the form of ‘carol-oke’ and so much more. While the daytime will be a child friendly, family fun outing for all, the evening changes into an adult-only zone with plenty of seasonal activities (and Christmas beer!), these hidden markets offer a little something for everyone. With a Brothers’ Grimm fairy tale theme, Leeds’ Kirkstall Abbey will be completely transformed into a Christmassy haven - expect the smells of spices to be lingering in the air, the sound of singing to fill the space and for joy to be spread all around!

Running over the course of ten days, the Leeds Christmas Hidden Markets are occupying the historic structure all the way up to Thursday 21st December - giving prime opportunity for the Christmas spirit to take over before the big day!
