Christmas cheer set to return to Clarke Foley

The Clarke Foley Community Hub has announced the return of its annual Christmas Markets on Saturday 7 November 2026.

Between 11am to 2pm the event promises a festive few hours of shopping, music and community spirit to the Cunliffe Road venue.

Now in its third year, the Christmas Markets has quickly become one of the highlights of the hub’s annual events calendar, bringing together local people, independent traders and visitors to celebrate the festive season.

This year’s event will feature over 20 stalls showcasing artisan products, which organisers say will offer a wonderful opportunity to discover unique gifts, handmade crafts and special festive treats while supporting local makers and small businesses.

Adding to the festive atmosphere, Ilkley’s Pop ’n’ Rock Choir will be joining the celebrations, filling the hub with Christmas cheer and seasonal songs.

Entry is free, and the café will be open all morning for refreshments and festive cheer. Everyone is welcome to enjoy live music, get a head start on Christmas shopping and support local businesses.
