Liverpool's Wonderland Market
Photographs by Patrick Trollope.

WELL, it really is looking like Christmas in Liverpool’s City Centre, as the Liverpool Christmas Market takes place in and around the centre and Liverpool One. “This year’s market in Liverpool puts our home town to shame. It has even more of a festive feel and is so easy to get around. People are just so friendly and like us everyone seems to be enjoying the unusual sites. The busking music groups are an added bonus, playing many Christmas songs to an externally high standard. We were surprised to find out that many just turn up and play and are not booked to play. It is such a good atmosphere. We will be recommending it to our friends and family to visit. Also as we are from Manchester, it has taken us by surprise, as we did not know Liverpool did this!” One of the visitors to the City told us when we asked them what they thought about the market. These are a few photos and a few video clips taken of the market and also the more unusual part of the event, with some of the local businesses setting up shop within Liverpool's very first shipping container market, hosted in Williamson Square. The event runs until 22 December 2013 and for more information visit:- visitliverpool.com/christmas‎. Also please enjoy our video clips as well...
