Finally, some good news when it comes to Glasgow Loves Christmas! George Square and St Enoch Square see Winterfest Christmas markets transforming Glasgow city centre into a true festive wonderland and replacing the cancelled Christmas market. On top of the Christmas Lights Switch-On on November 17, we saw an ice rink, festive bars, rides and more this December and January when two Christmas markets opened to the public.
Winterfest at St Enoch Square
The first to open on the agenda is the St Enoch Square on November 9, lasting up until December 29, 2024.
Of course, visitors can expect a festive bar on top of the stalls and rides, so fear not, for there will be plenty of foodie treats to go around. There will also be a new platform for local artists and entry to the event is free.
Winterfest at George Square
And on November 23, George Square Christmas market opens its doors, offering visitors plenty of treats, and will stay until January 5.
No exact details have yet been confirmed, but let’s hope we will see the return of the massive ice rink.
Speaking ahead of the opening, a spokesperson for M&N said: “This year, Glasgow Winterfest promises to be the ultimate destination for festive fun, offering a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary holiday experiences. Join us in George Square and St Enoch Square as we celebrate the magic of the season.”
