A run of one-day Christmas gift markets in Cirencester's Market Place, held on seven days between late November and 22 December.

Cotswold Markets, which also runs the Cheltenham Christmas Market, fills Cirencester's Market Place with traditional market stalls for a series of Christmas gift markets. They are held on the doorstep of St John's Church, where the town's regular charter markets also trade.

In 2026 there is one market in November and six in the run-up to Christmas, each open from 10am to 4pm, with a mix of goods from local traders. It is a good stop for last-minute presents while exploring the town's shops.
