With strong north to north-westerly winds of up to 55-57 mph and heavy rain in the forecast, the conditions wouldn’t be safe for visitors or traders. The safety of everyone – traders, visitors, and staff – is the top priority. While this decision wasn’t taken lightly, many other Christmas markets are also pausing due to the challenging weather.
The Make it York team will review the forecast on Saturday afternoon and share an update about plans for Sunday, 8 December, as soon as possible.They are truly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and are very grateful for everyone’s understanding. For the latest updates, please keep an eye on the official communication channels.
York is still open and happy to welcome visitors, but everyone is encouraged to plan ahead and check the weather before setting off.
