Yuletide York - Christmas 2005: "York is magical at Christmas time with its cobbled streets and snickleways, welcoming inns and restaurants and its candlelit churches. Christmas events around the city are diverse and offer something for everyone. If you're in need of some retail therapy, enjoy an excellent variety of quality shops in York's historic streets and bustling market place or combine your visit to one of York's three out-of-town shopping parks featuring the best in designer clothing and high street names.
New to York in 2005, the city will host a Children’s Christmas Fayre from 18-20 November 2005. Coinciding with the national Children In Need charity campaign, York promises a range of stalls and entertainment especially arranged for Children.
York boasts some of the best specialist markets in the country, starting with St Nicholas Fayre from 24 - 27 November 2005. This four day Fayre across the city offers an array of markets ranging from gifts, craft and medieval goods, to the best in local food produce.
