The Northern Christmas Market with free parking, champagne and 180 stalls

Heading out to a Christmas Market is a great way to get yourself and the family in the festive spirit. While Manchester Christmas market is the obvious choice for locals, parking in the city can prove expensive, as can many of the food and drink stalls.

As such, many people are looking for alternative Christmas Markets, with the Great Yorkshire Christmas Fair proving a popular choice. Tickets to the Great Yorkshire Christmas Fair cost £2.50 instead of £5 per person here - but for that price you'll get free car parking, a champagne bar and 180 stalls.

Located at the West Yorkshire Showground near Harrogate, this indoor fair is decked with 180 companies selling the finest Christmas wares. There are also two restaurants, a champagne bar, cafes and a food hall to keep you well-fed and watered as the festive day rolls by.
