The markets are pure festive joy for kids—and the young. Picture this: twinkling lights, carousel rides that bring out giggles, and Santa waiting with a warm “Ho, ho, ho!” The markets are fun, whether writing wish lists, posing for goofy family selfies with life-sized nutcrackers, or chasing snowflakes from the artificial snow machines. Parents can enjoy the cheerful chaos, knowing a cup of mulled wine awaits them.

The festival’s creative offerings go beyond music. Every corner of Glastonbury is teeming with interactive art, from striking sculptures to immersive art installations. These innovative works allow visitors to be part of the art and experience the festival differently. Many artists design works that challenge perceptions and engage with festival-goers in fun and thought-provoking ways. Whether snapping pictures or participating in the installations, the art at the festival makes the event even more exciting and interactive.

The markets on Christmas come alive with the season’s sound, featuring talented carolling choirs, toe-tapping live bands, and even theatrical performances that will have you laughing and singing along the next. Look out for spontaneous flash mobs, where performers burst into song, creating a magical surprise for the crowd. Whether you’re cheering on the local brass band or marvelling at a juggler dressed as an elf, the entertainment ensures you’ll leave with a smile (and maybe a slightly hoarse voice from all the carolling).

Prepare your taste buds for a festive feast! The markets are brimming with mouth-watering delights, from the comforting sweetness of freshly baked gingerbread to sizzling savoury sausages that smell too good to resist. And what’s a visit without warming up with a steaming cup of mulled wine or creamy hot chocolate? Don’t forget to grab some roasted chestnuts—they’re like little bites of winter magic! Whether indulging in a hearty snack or sneaking an extra dessert (we won’t tell), the food alone is worth the trip. Pro tip: Wear stretchy trousers—you’ll thank us later!
