A Grade I listed 18th-century country house in Yorkshire to host its first Christmas market this festive season.
Bramham Park is entering an exciting new chapter. Best known as the long-standing home of Leeds Festival and the Bramham Park International Horse Trials, the Estate is expanding its public events programme with a series of festive experiences planned for autumn and winter 2026.
And it’ll host its first Bramham Park Christmas Artisan Market onSaturday 14 and Sunday 15 November.
Bramham Park will welcome more than 100 artisan traders for its inaugural Christmas Market to celebrate the start of the festive season.
Set against the backdrop of the house, the market will bring together a variety of independent makers and producers of quality artisan products ideal for Christmas gifts and decorations, whilst in the stable yard there will be a selection of local food stands all celebrating the beginning of Christmas seasonal preparations.
Entry to the market is free, but you can save half-price on parking with YorkMix vouchers! Each voucher admits one vehicle and all occupants to this event on ONE date.
On the Saturday, the Yorkshire Rock Choir will perform carols in front of the main house from 12-2pm, adding to the festive cheer.
James Hamilton-Goddard, commercial director at Bramham Park, said “We are looking forward to welcoming everyone to The Beginning of Christmas at Bramham Park.
“We are planning a great day out of festive cheer for all the family, filled with a variety of trade stands, music and food.
“Keep following us on social media as there are more announcements to come.”
Bramham Park lies mid-way between York and Leeds, five miles south of Wetherby.
In December, Bramham Park is also launching Christmas House Tours, giving visitors the opportunity to enjoy an informative tour of this private historic home, followed by tea, coffee and mince pies in the Old Kitchen.
Bramham Park is a much-loved family home, and Christmas is traditionally celebrated with a 25ft tree in the hall and many decorations throughout the house. These tours will offer a rare glimpse inside one of Yorkshire’s most special Grade 1 listed Historic Houses.
