Get ready to immerse yourself in the festive spirit as a brand new Christmas market opens its doors for the first time in the 2024 holiday season.

Located in the heart of Cornwall's tin and copper mining industry at Redruth, the buzzing indoor market, with free parking, will run from Thursday, December 5 to Sunday, December 8.

Happening at heritage attraction and jewellery showroom Cornwall Gold, the market is brand new for Cornwall and offers a hassle-free way to enjoy an indoor festive event. Located just minutes off the A30, at Portreath, visitors can enjoy the colourful market packed with Cornish products.

Described as "a Christmas market like no other" shoppers will be able to take advantage of nearly 30 local stall holders as well as the stunning pieces in the Cornwall Gold jewellery showroom.

The Pantry will be serving up tempting homemade treats including mince pies, mulled wine and hot chocolates alongside their mouth-watering Christmas menu. Treleigh School Choir will be singing at 10.30 on Friday 6 with visits from Father Christmas himself throughout and other exciting appearances underway.

Mike Taylor, managing director, explains: “Building off the back of two successful years we are delighted to introduce this Christmas Market event, celebrating Cornish history, Cornish people and local Cornish businesses, we are very excited to be launching our market this year, an event we hope to turn into an annual showstopper.

"With easy access, award-winning food and drink, plenty to see and do plus small local businesses to shop from, it is set to be an unmissable new date for the Cornish Christmas Calendar.”

Cornwall Gold's Christmas Market will run daily from 10am until 4pm. It's also a dog-friendly event.

OPINION - Laugh at Iqbal Mohamed all you want, but a law is the wrong way to tackle first cousin marriage
Iqbal Mohamed, one of the Independent Alliance of five MPs, went viral after his earnest defence of first cousin marriages as Parliament debated a proposal to ban them. Among other things, Mohamed said, these unions “help build up family bonds”. Since consanguineous marriage is a tradition among particular communities originating from the Middle East and South Asia, it would therefore be harmful, even racist, the subtext goes, to disparage or restrict its free practice.
