The Christmas markets first arrived in Manchester in 1998, when the council of Frankfurt hosted a small traditional German market of just 17 stalls in St Ann’s Square. Now an annual event, the 2019 Christmas Market has stalls spread across Albert Square, The Corn Exchange, King Street, St Ann's Square, Exchange Street, Market Street, New Cathedral Street, Exchange Square, Market Street and Piccadilly Gardens.
