Manchester's Christmas markets spread more than 200 food, drink and craft stalls across ten city-centre spots, with Albert Square at the heart, including a 50-metre Ferris wheel and helter-skelter. Free to wander, so families can dip in for a look, a hot chocolate and a ride. Busy at weekends and evenings; most markets close on 22 December, while Albert Square and Cathedral Gardens stay open into January.
