There will be new food traders rotating each week. The first line-up includes OnaRoll, The Cheesy Living Co, Raclettmenot, Heffe Mojo, Masri Egyptian Street Food and many more are set to be confirmed each week.

The main bar will be serving drinks to get you in the festive spirit. Every Thursday to Sunday enjoy a range of warming winter specials from 12pm until 10pm, giving you plenty of time to taste their entire stock.

Local and national breweries will also be on hand to give supply the boozy goods. North Brew Co and Camden Town Brewery will accompany the likes of Jack Daniels and Slane, Fords Gin and Finlandia Vodka to showcase a mix of world-class spirits and beers.

If you fancy becoming a master of spirits yourself, Wolf Bros, Benriach, Glenglassaugh, The Glendroanach and Woodfood Reserve will be on hand to teach you a thing or two at their masterclass and tasting sessions.

These exciting culinary experiences wouldn’t be complete without some live music.

A selection of local DJs will be providing the soundtrack to the event, with the likes of Released Records and DJ Owen, John Hope and Greggo providing the ultimate ambience with their decks.

If this wasn’t enough, the Leeds Conservatoire will be putting their own spin on with live band performances.

It’s clear that the festive spirit has been turned up to 100 this year and the Corn Exchange are delighted to be hosting a Christmas event after the disappointment of last winter’s pandemic restrictions.

A spokesperson for the event stated: “we’re all ready to make this year’s one to remember“.

This is the latest Christmas Market announcement in Leeds. After the city council announced that the traditional German Christmas Markets in the city centre would be cancelled, local businesses have been providing amazing alternatives.

This year, the Corn Exchange Christmas markets will join a massive ice rink and igloo bar at City Square and the Malton Christmas foodie markets as some of the best festive activities in the lead up to Christmas in Yorkshire.

The Corn Exchange will host seating for around 200 people and will run every Thursday to Sunday from Friday 19 November.
