Nottingham transforms Old Market Square into a complete festive village.
Beyond the Christmas market stalls you’ll find an Ice Bar, alpine‑themed bars, an observation wheel and entertainment programme. Food is a big draw—think Yorkshire pudding wraps, loaded hot chocolates and local bakes—so arrive hungry. The handsome Council House creates a grand backdrop, while trams stop right by the square for easy access. Families can skate by day and ride the wheel at sunset; groups can book bars and igloos for a party vibe. The event runs to New Year’s Eve, making it a great choice for late‑December travellers. Wrap up and linger—there’s plenty to do even after gift shopping is done.
