Whitby Christmas Market & Festival

Home » Events » Whitby Christmas Market & Festival

Over the course of the weekend, a variety of local choirs will take to the stage to perform your favourite Christmas carols. The Friday night typically culminates with the Christmas light switch on.

The Whitby Christmas Market and Festival has something for everyone with a jam-packed programme of events to enjoy. The 2024 schedule has not yet been released, but if last year’s anything to go by, you’re in for a real treat.

Schedule of events:

  • Friday – The Town Mayor usually kicks of proceedings with a welcome speech before local choirs take to the stage. The Christmas lights are switched on drawing the evening to a close.
  • Saturday – Saturday is a full day affair with plenty of market stalls to peruse. Local choirs take to the stage and children’s entertainers perform to the crowds. Saturday night usually ends with an impressive fireworks display.
  • Sunday – the event carries on into Sunday. Enjoy a spot of Christmas shopping or stop listen to a song or two!
