Description

Skipton Market is a unique outdoor market.

It’s history dates to medieval times, when a royal charter granted consent to The Lord of the Honour of Skipton Castle to hold a fair on Skipton High Street.

This royal charter consent still holds true today and the Market is open every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday throughout the year, with occasional market days added particularly on the approach to Christmas.

Market opening times are generally 9am to 4.30pm.

We open (much) earlier on certain market days when you can visit our Fishmonger, Cheesemonger and, Fruit & Vegetable stalls.

Our Market stalls and pitches are located on the cobbled area, known as setts between the main road and the footpaths. Skipton Market is an integral part of the town centre shopping experience, operating directly alongside the main High Street shops.
