Thousands joined us to enjoy the festivities come rain or shine ...

Our official photographs will appear shortly on our website and social media pages but here's just a glimpse of the weekend's exciting events ...

Over 120 Stallholders and Charities offered a festive sprinkiling of christmas cheer with a wide range of all that glitters gifts and Sheffield Made goods.

Our Upper Gallery was packed with stalls selling jewellery, housewares and christmas gift ideas.

Outside stallholders helped visitors find novel ways to keep warm through the rainy days.

The market was officially opened by the Lord Mayor Dr Sylvia Dunkley from our new performance stage which hosted a wonderful array of brass bands, choirs and chorus groups throughout the day.

Our Dickensian Folk entertained families whilst children could help Santa and his busy elves in Santa's Workshop.

Wishing all our supporters a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year from all at Sheffield Industrial Museums Trust
