MANCHESTER CHRISTMAS MARKETS 2024 - Best In The UK?

[@lemmy74]

Prices are scandalous! Just a cash cow now! I'll avoid like the plague!

[@christinehodge3608]

Good video enjoyed this, thank you for sharing, 😊

[@juliemcgarty4764]

Lovely to see you round the Christmas market paul everything expensive but nice to walk round

[@kennethwalsh8804]

Hi Paul, Great, well presented video, thanks. I'm from Salford, but will be going to the Markets. These events are expensive to set, up, hence the prices. There's no pockets in a shroud. Enjoy.

[@kathhodgkiss5340]

[@whoknowswhere]

We only live once

[@JanetDFoster]

Thank you for posting this nice video. I always enjoy watching Christmas Markets videos and I really appreciate your style of filming and sharing. I like how you show both the sights and vendor stalls at the market and what treats you are enjoying. Looking forward to watching more of your videos this year.

[@pennyblackstamp]

Ding dong merrily on high! Thanks Paul this has put me in a Christmas mood 🎄 I need a kick start. Wow spoilt for choice for food and drink and lots of lovely gift ideas. 'At least I can taste the Baileys ' 😂 you'd hope to at least get an alcoholic buzz for £10.50! Looked busy and buzzing, pretty good record 26 years . Hope you had a good time, thank you 🎄🧑‍🎄 x

[@cassandrade-wolfe6926]

I was there the same time as you paul. Wish I'd seen you, I'd have given you a wave. 👋 Not only did the stalls look good....the smells were lovely! Happy early Christmas 🎁

[@whoknowswhere]

And you

[@Joliethu17]

Lovely, thanks for sharing. I will be visiting Manchester in early next month I will stop by❤

[@romatennant9993]

Came here last year and spent a fortune on French soaps that lasted ages. I loved the Mulled Wine, too, as it's certainly got a kick to it!! Thanks for showing us around the Manchester Christmas market, Paul.

[@barbarawalker8957]

Hi Paul thanks for showing us around the market. I love Christmas markets so this was right up my street. Thanks for showing us the stalls as well with things for sale. Those sausages you brought were definitely not worth the money! Thanks.

[@joannejohnson]

Hi Paul, great video lovely Christmas Market. There is one similar near where I live in Southeast London. I do receive notifications for your channel. Best wishes from Joanne

[@kevinhenryviii]

The best way I like to see Christmas markets is via video and then I don’t have to spend anything 😂 But I’m a proper grinch 😉. Great video though and was nice to see my niece’s cake stall on your video. 👍🏻

[@susanmcloughlin3930]

Wow all the food looked amazing so many stalls to see brilliant market Paul thanks for sharing 👍 ❤❤

[@whoknowswhere]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@cynthiasim3102]

Love your narratives, honest comments and opinions! Also, good choice of music! This video is super helpful for my upcoming trip :) Thank you and Merry Xmas!

[@whoknowswhere]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tracysmith-yv5lt]

all i want for christmas is Baileys

[@susanlindarice]

the singer took a while to warm up but i thought he conveyed the spirit of the song brave to sing in public-been watching for a while-enjoying the new varied content-you do get around!

[@patriciajervis3909]

I am going to blackpool market next month looking forward to it loverely music paul xp

[@bartrandsnappy]

I don’t like it and won’t go. Total rip off. The only thing thst changes is the prices which just go up. Still people are daft enough to pay so can you blame them.

[@lynnballington8467]

Hello Paul how are you love your vidio of the Manchester Christmas market very interested and I love the Christmas tunes best wishes take care stay safe from Lynn x ❤😅😅😊

[@suemorris550]

Love a Christmas market, some beautiful products not sure I would pay the price for the food and drink though ❤

[@sueharding111]

Thank You Paul, really enjoyed that walkaround! 🍺🎄

[@whoknowswhere]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@dianeshepherd7913]

Thanks for showing us the markets nice to watch from the sofa 😊

[@Lofty-Caz-77-79]

Going to Bath Christmas market next month heard it's one of the best so can't wait :) thanks for the vlog Paul

[@johnmcculloch414]

Nice video Paul although I’m not into these sort of markets as they are a real rip off. But I enjoyed watching it as you do make some lovely content

[@patricabenson2324]

Hi Paul, Wish we had one like that in Bedford. Looks like it's on a flat service. Places like that are always expensive. Looks so good. Thank you Paul.

[@spiritualdestiny2457]

Thanks for the upload Paul.

[@TheBenRatch]

Do love Manny Markets. I was pleasantly surprised though last year by Blackpool’s markets although minuscule in comparison. But better prices for similar products and nowhere near as crammed!

[@Traciesvibes]

Love the market time u walk round all the stalls ur full and tipsy av fun stay warm and safe Tracie’s vibes 🇬🇧💯🌺

[@whoknowswhere]

Thank you! You too!

[@steverowland1686]

We go to cologne Christmas markets been going since 2003 and to Berlin few time. I'm Manchester lad but been few time its to Expensive cologne is 50% cheaper

[@northwalesmod]

What about the cost of getting there !!

[@steverowland1686]

We get cheap flight and get to Manchester on the train is not cheap

[@andywright3450]

Hi paul great content mate love these kind of videos stay safe mate

[@JasenomadeTV]

Beautiful, I am going to be there at the end of the month, I will visit, thanks for sharing with us x

[@whoknowswhere]

You’re welcome 😊

[@user-yg6ye2ho3g]

Good video thanks for sharing

[@ntanavar6861]

Thanks for the video

[@traceymitchell6619]

I love Christmas Markets and was thinking about going down to Manchester or York but I think I'm done with travelling for this year, so maybe next year. We are going to do our usual Edinburgh, easy day trip for us but like Manchester and the rest everything is way over priced.

[@damianleah6744]

Ba humbug! 😂. Very expensive for what they are. But that’s just my personal opinion. Great video though thanks 👍😎

[@zombiezool]

9.50 to me is expensive, maybe the sausages are expensive to make?. is it too early to say MERRY CHRISTMAS yet?

[@susanmcdermott3668]

Looks fantastic there. I love Christmas markets have you been to the ones in Germany they are some of the best.🎄

[@whoknowswhere]

Yes they are!

[@Diane-ft5zj]

What a great market, you are from Liverpool do they have one as well?

[@whoknowswhere]

Yes next week

[@paulinedelaney6385]

Going there next week. Think I need a 2nd mortgage as I've been told food/drink is pricey!

[@chrisbushell6077]

Go abroad

[@jonfethers7608]

9.50 for currywurst, you can buy exactly the same in B&Ms for less than £2!

[@kimmyk4425]

Will you be going to any of the Christmas markets in Poland this year?

[@whoknowswhere]

Maybe not sure yet

[@mansfieldlad123]

Looking good but I would not pay £9.50 for CurryWurst that is outrageous Lidl sell it for £1.49 when they do an Alpen week so if they charged £6 there is still a very good markup on it. I suppose £6 for the lager isn't too bad in this day and age it's nice to walk around these markets but you certainly have to be selective in what you buy unless of course your wealthy youtuber.

[@whoknowswhere]

wealthy lol

[@KathyBarnett-mv5vg]

I've been to a few Christmas Markets, York, Chester, Manchester, Paris but I have to admit the best one in my opinion is Leeds! Xx

[@whoknowswhere]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jackthelad5366]

I agree and Leeds is great for shopping in general 👍

[@LorraineJennings-g7v]

What time do all the stalls open?

[@whoknowswhere]

10am

[@zombiezool]

maybe the rent of area is expensive, cost of staff and electric generators add to it.

[@juliepownall1063]

Turned notification bell to all

[@zombiezool]

i didnt know manchester had a cathedral . least ive not heard of it having one before nor have i seen it. all the xmas markets are way expensive , leeds is the same very expensive. i dont go to them to be honest. ps love your channel and congratulations to the engagement at dlp.

[@nfj72]

I'll be going to Liverpool to the One next month

[@ellem2293]

Looks nice, I been to the Birmingham one a few yrs back, back then they only had German stalls, whereas Mancs has got all sorts, I spied a Jamaican stall.. thats where I would head to first lol The Mancs market is soooo much better than Birmingham! Will be nice to visit with me grandkids :) Thanks Paul

[@leelo4717]

If you don't like it, don't go..That's the issue though. My kids don't understand why they can't go but some of their wealthier friends can. It's a them problem, don't make it about us.

[@AlysonSkett]

well said paul.. its once a year .. treat yourself x

[@redmachine2861]

Seems to me nowadays that the prices are just gonna keep inflating and we the people are normalising it that being said I have been to Manchester Christmas market back in 2016 prices weren't too bad back then

[@HazelMunday]

Love Xmas markets but so expensive

[@NAYF76]

A great watch.

[@heatherjoy479]

I love one in wickham hampshire please

[@juliepownall1063]

Lovely markets but a tad expensive ok once in a while

[@stuartt9132]

Way over priced for what it is.and i understand all the costs the shed holders have.nice vidio.

[@catherineclark4484]

I'm not going id rather go to blackpool

[@marcchadwick240]

I'm in York over Xmas 😊

[@Wendy-Ma]

It does not feel safe to be in a city these days, it is such a shame to see what our once safe country has become!

[@SoftCell68-br1tt]

Definitely not the best, that’s Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Market by a mile!

[@Smithstar1976]

Fortunately I live in Thailand and don’t have Christmas out here it’s not the same

[@marcchadwick240]

Need a second mortgage paul 😂😮

[@itsonlyme9938]

Are you a Mancunian or a MUG I am referring to the prices of course.

[@whoknowswhere]

It's a personal choice if you think its too expensive don't go, your choice

[@itsonlyme9938]

@@whoknowswhere Yes I do have the choice, I recall some one buying lose sweets about half a bag full and being charged £11 and the store was a stone throw away from Tesco on market street where one could buy a Cadbury's large tin of Roses for £8 a no brainer. The trinklets and jewelry on display made in China I bet its just tacky rubbish.

[@jeff0097]

manchester xmas markets are a complete rip off, avoid at all costs! I Bruges xmas markets for me!! much better experience.. believe me!!

[@northwalesmod]

Nice ! But what about the cost of getting there !!?

[@MrTSK27]

Yes it's back. If you live here you often give it a wide berth..Come 22 Dec we get our city centre back.At the end of the day local traders are paying rent and business rates to the council.Would like to know how much we make from this disruptive binge fest.

[@BRIAN-mr5ue]

Thanks for video👍..I always like the xmasy music you play in these..Prices are a bit steep even for Xmas..Or am I just Scrooge in disguise 🤣

[@whoknowswhere]

Yes Ebenezer lol

[@davidhodgson4695]

Looks great but I am going to moan about those prices. I'd love to go but for me and lots of people its just unafffordable. Such a shame.

[@DafyddBrooks]

thanks for showing this. may I ask, was there a police presence around?? they mentioned there would be

[@whoknowswhere]

Police, security and armed police

[@DafyddBrooks]

@@whoknowswhere cheers. Its a shame they have had to do that this year :( . Merry Christmas and God bless mate

[@AnnSheridan-g1t]

Great video thankyou

[@James-wp3jq]

Didn't we just have bonfire night !

[@KPP365]

I'm so jealous. I need to get to these ASAP .ENJOY

[@Thegrinch2169]

i like birmingham better sorry 😄

[@satveerkaur5874]

Not worth 9.50 small portion

[@chrisbushell6077]

Please be careful especially piccadilly it's full of dealers etc go back to Europe

[@Jim-n2c4b]

Another excuse to rip off the public

[@ndjd248]

Rip off!!!

[@neilroberts1609]

Uk's best worst markets ,,,its a joke.

[@Uno-1968]

Over priced tat .
