I'm going to Birmingham in the beginning of December and I will definitely visit this Christmas Market!! Even if it's not the best, it looks very cute and fun! I'm used to snow during Christmas and I find it very difficult to feel the Christmas spirit without it, but I hope this cute place will help me get in Christmas mood! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Wilma and welcome to the channel! Thanks so much for watching, I'm really pleased it's helped you get ready for your trip over - have a super time 🎄
Great video 👍 but you completely missed out the other half of the market over at Cathedral square (pigeon park) it has more stalls with independent sellers and better food options and a pop up pub!
I go every year and after covid it went really down hill. There were hardly any stalls one year. This year looks slightly improved on that. Good video. I will be going soon.
A very nicely presented and informative video, but speaking as a local I don't find much to recommend this market at all. The prices of food and drink especially, are very high and many of the stalls just sell the same overpriced poor qualitystuff every year.. So while it might be a Christmas Market, I wouldn't describe it as a particularly authentic one.
Hiya, the cities are supposed to be twinned - this market was initially created to try and encourage the British over the water to try the real deal in Frankfurt...
Sorry there is no fuss .. It gets worse every Year the German Market .. over priced rubbish on stalls .. I stay well away from it .. Complete waist of time and Money.. BTW not Trolling you just pointing out what most People in Brum think of it Now ... Cheers
Hiya, no I don't have a problem with your honesty - thank you for giving your feedback! To be fair, I've not met 1 person from Birmingham who actually likes the Christmas market there 😆
( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆). Hi, friend That movie was incredible! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 So joyful and heartwarming! 😍 I really enjoyed every moment of it! 😊👍 Hope you have a fantastic day, my dear friend! ( ♥ ͜ʖ ♥)👍💯💯
Hiya 👋 I imagine the twinkling lights and Christmas trees would look really magical for kids 🎄 Christmas, a humbug, Rick!? "You don't mean that, I am sure?" 😉
The Christmas Market is not as good now as it used to be it was better in the past the atmosphere is not the Same in the past we would go Three Times now i only go ones yes there is the Homeless as well walking around asking for money you do have to watch you Back as well some of the stools are not all German Some are other nationality’s it’s worth a visit ones sorry to be so down hearted things have Changed a lot over time 🥹
Yes I agree, I went about 10 years ago and really enjoyed it...Its a shame, I just feel Birmingham centre doesn't feel particularly safe which puts you on edge when walking round 😬 the homeless I feel so sorry for and try help where possible but people coming up to you when your walking round asking for money is quite intimidating (and it happened more than once) lots of groups about too looking shifty 😬 its not impossible to have a good time, I just think you need to have your wits about you

Nice vlog and useful info👍 but as a local the market is the same old thing every year prices are way over the top to 🍻
Thanks for watching - yes to be honest I've not met one person from Birmingham who likes the Christmas market there - so I guess that says a lot 😬

Thanks so much for the info 😊 I saw they were putting something up but it hadn't opened yet - a good tip for future visitors - thanks!

The stalls at the Cathedral is a British market. Usually have a helter skelter
Thanks for the info - shame that it hadn't started at the same time as the rest of the market 😔 but good for future visitors to know - thanks ☺️🎄

Nice pick pocket heaven and really safe.
Yeah there were lots of signs up about pick pocketing 😬
Looks like the same food as years past. Food at Manchester market looks more updated
Yeah my son said Manchester had more variety for food but I haven't tested it out yet....
Nice market but i prefer ours here in Quebec because we have real snow. Have an awesome week Claire♥
Oh wow I'd love to see a market with real snow - that must look so magical - thanks for watching Lorraine x
@@LorraineWeston-t9j Sounds lovely! I'd love to visit Canada one day!❄☃️
What is the Frankfurt part of it ??

i was there last year' it did have police around.
Must be something they do every year then...in the paper it said they'd increased the number of officers for 2024...
@@TheWanderlustWayisback they closed off the roads aswell so no cars could get in.
@@jonshadow4052 good for visitors....not so good for locals I guess 😬
