The Bournemouth Christmas Market is the place to be this festive season – bigger, brighter, and more enchanting than ever!
Set in the heart of Bournemouth Square, the market runs from 13th November to 31st December 2025.
With quaint chalets serving Christmas treats, stocking fillers, handmade gifts and local produce, the Bournemouth Christmas Market is a great place for a spot of Christmas shopping.
There’s plenty to eat too with traditional hog roasts, bratwurst sausages, roasted chestnuts, churros, waffles and sweat treats…you’ll be spoilt for choice!
The market is open daily from 11.00am except on Christmas Day until late. Market stalls close at 8pm daily (7pm Sundays) and food stalls remain open until 10pm everyday.
Alpine Lodge Bar
When you need a rest from all that shopping head into the Alpine Lodge Bar. With views over the market it’s the perfect spot for Christmas parties, team nights out or festive drinks with friends.
Open 11.00am until 11.00pm every day (except Christmas Day) the Alpine Lodge Bar is the perfect place to enjoy a selection of festive hot and cold drinks, steins, beer towers and mulled wine. With plenty of seating both inside and out, you can also book a booth or even reserve an Apres Hutte Private Ski Gondola!
Plus if you’re dreaming of a white Christmas then don’t miss the artificial snowfall from The Alpine Lodge Balcony throughout the season! Monday – Thursday at 5pm daily and Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 2.00pm, 5.00pm and 7.00pm.
Live Entertainment
Keeping you in the festive spirit there will be some great live entertainment in the square from local choirs, bands, artists, performers and entertainers. Little ones will love the festive characters who will be making special appearances during the season spreading joy throughout the market, whereas the grown ups will no doubt enjoy the festive karaoke, bingo and quiz nights.
Finally don’t forget to head down into the gardens and check out the enchanting Christmas Tree Wonderland with a dazzling display of light-up trees, Santa’s Express, Christmas Tree Maze, Santa’s workshop and SKATE Bournemouth!
