The Henry Street and Mary Street Christmas markets have opened once again, marking their 76th consecutive year.
This year’s event has been refreshed with updated gazebos, and a total of 50 festive stalls are in place, reports Breaking News.
The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Ray McAdam, formally opened the market on Saturday morning, joined by performers providing entertainment along the street.
McAdam said: “For 76 years, the Henry Street and Mary Street Christmas Market has been part of the heartbeat of a Dublin Christmas – a place where generations have gathered, browsed, laughed, and soaked up the magic of the season. This market is more than stalls and lights; it’s a celebration of Dubliners, of creativity, of our shared traditions, and of the community spirit that makes our city so special all year round. As Lord Mayor, and as someone who believes deeply in celebrating Dublin, I am proud that we continue to support this cherished event. I’d encourage everyone to come into the city, wander the market, meet the traders, and feel that unmistakable Dublin Christmas twinkle once again,” reports Breaking News.
Santa Claus will make appearances at the market on the following dates:
Saturday, December 6th: 11am – 1pm
Sunday, Monday, December 7th and 8th: 2pm – 4pm
Saturday, Sunday, December 13th and 14th: 2pm – 4pm
Saturday, Sunday, December 20th and 21st: 2pm – 4pm
The market is open seven days a week from 10am until 9pm, finishing on Christmas Eve, and entry is free, reports Breaking News.
