Organisers 'hopeful' Knaresborough Christmas market will return
Knaresborough Christmas Market will hopefully go ahead as planned this December, according to its organisers.
Following last year's cancellation due to covid, the committee is pressing ahead with its plans to hold the festive market on December 4 and 5.
Normally the weekend event hosts around 80 stalls but organisers have said this may have to be reduced.
They said it wasn’t possible to control the number of visitors in the Market Place but this should not be a barrier if all social distancing rules are lifted on June 21 as planned.
Hazel Haas, chair of the Knaresborough Christmas Market committee, said:

The committee said it is only taking reservations for stalls for now and will take payments closer to the time.
It is a similar story in Harrogate, with the town's Christmas market committee also confident this year's event can be held.
