About Exeter Cathedral Christmas Market
Exeter Cathedral Christmas Market transforms Cathedral Green into a festive village of timber chalets each winter, with the floodlit cathedral as its backdrop. Dozens of South West makers and producers gather to sell handmade gifts, crafts, and plenty of local food and drink, from mulled cider to artisan cheese.
It is one of the highlights of Exeter's winter calendar, drawing visitors from across Devon for an evening of browsing, grazing and soaking up the atmosphere. Entry is free, and it sits right in the heart of the city for an easy festive day out.
