Edinburgh Christmas Market has consistently been namechecked as one of the best markets in Europe and it has returned for 2024, so I popped along to see what it was like.
As ever the Christmas market is a buzzing hive of activity with stalls selling food, drink and crafts that are perfect gifts. And it is still attracting huge numbers of people, when I visited on Friday evening the gardens were packed with people making their way along the stalls.

00:00Edinburgh Christmas Market has returned for 2024 so I popped along to check it out on
00:10Friday evening. It was as always packed with people getting into the festive spirit. Food
00:20and drink options are always my reason for going, I can't look past getting a cold pint
00:24and a bratwurst and doing some people watching. But the gardens are also packed with stalls
00:33selling crafty Christmas gifts. I was keen to check out the stalls selling Christmas
00:37decorations in the hope of finding something to brighten up my living room this festive
00:40season. I'll need to bring my daughter along to let her pick out something to stick on
00:45the tree. The big wheel was also back alongside the star flyer, although it'll be a braver
01:06than me that goes on that.
01:36All in, the market is still a great opportunity to get into the festive spirit.
