A weekend Christmas market spread around the quays and streets of the Cornish harbour town of Fowey, with almost 100 regional traders.

Fowey Christmas Market takes over the small harbour town for a weekend, with stalls spread across Fowey Town Quay, Albert Quay, Webb Street and the Town Hall. The organisers say almost 100 regional traders take part, selling locally produced food and drink, crafts, jewellery and gifts.

It opens with a Friday evening session and continues through Saturday and Sunday, with seasonal music, family entertainment and a visit from Father Christmas. The organisers say it draws tens of thousands of visitors.

Fowey's streets are narrow and steep, so allow time to get around; the official site has getting-here and FAQ pages.
