More than 40 independent makers and food traders will be heading to New Jackson for the Manchester Made festive market next month, powered by Renaker. Taking place over three days, stalls including everything from homewares to festive gifts will be set up in the public space at the foot of the Deansgate Square towers from 6 to 8 December.
With a 20-person choir providing a Christmas soundtrack, there will be great things to buy, eat and drink, with the square decorated with Christmas trees, festoon lights and cosy tipis. Traders include Manchester Gin, Gooey and Millington Hall Farm. The market is free to attend, with a limited guest list where visitors can pre-register for free and enjoy 50% off a hot chocolate to warm you up on arrival. The market is open from 4pm to 9pm on Friday 6 December, and 1pm to 9pm on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 December.
