Manchester Markets

Thought Id give you a little bit of info about all of the Markets in and around Manchester!

The Flower Market is located in Piccadilly Gardens in the city centre and sells all sorts of things flowery! Including exotic plants and Bonsai Trees to cut flowers bunched and single, shrubs and bulbs to name a few. It is open every Thursday, Friday and Saturday until 5pm!

The Farmers Market is also located in Piccadilly Gardens but this one is only once a month rather than weekly. Its on the second weekend of every month and runs on the Friday and Saturday. Its is purely local produce from in and around the North West and Wales. Fresh vegetables, fresh meat, home made jams, home made cakes are just a few things you can buy. Its actually the Farmers themselves that run the market which I think is a really nice authentic touch, as you can find out everything about where the produce came from and how it was made etc! A little tip – there is a stall which sells really heavenly steak rolls!!

The Fashion Market is the other weekend market in the city centre. It is located on Tib Street. Selling one off designer clothes, jewellery, bags and shoes. If you want something a little unique and different this is definitely the place to come, it is a small showcase for up and coming designers from the local area. It’s open every Saturday if you fancy a gander!

There is always Bury Market if you fancy getting away from Manchester city centre for a day. Saturday is the best day to go to this famous market. Its perfect for anything you want, especially fresh meats, fresh fish and other foods. Its a brilliant day out for sure!
