Not one, not two but three festive weekends…

Date: 02/11/2022 | Posted by John Garton

We’re delighted to announce that this year, with kind permission of the Bailiff, we are bringing the Genuine Jersey Simply Christmas markets in St Helier’s historic Royal Square for THREE four-day weekends, to really kick off the festive season.

The Genuine Jersey Simply Christmas markets will bring you a labyrinth of stalls oozing with festive magic, beautiful gifts and tasty treats sold by more than 60 local artisans and producers.

Genuine Jersey Chief Executive John Garton said: “Being able to bring the Genuine Jersey Simply Christmas Markets back to the Royal Square last year was just incredible, so good that this year we’re going to be running over not just two, but three four-day weekends. We really hope that this is the start of a new tradition for the festive calendar. As with previous years there will be hot food, drinks, and a programme of live music and entertainment throughout the three weekends, making the markets the perfect place to buy unique gifts directly from the artisans who have created and produced them, while soaking up the atmosphere and embracing the festive cheer.

 

“Being able to extend over three weekends wouldn’t be possible for us without input from local businesses Signtech CI, Fetch.je and TEAM Asset Management, we simply wouldn’t be able to provide our Members with this fabulous platform to sell their goods if it wasn’t for them. A special thanks must also go to the Bailiff’s office and also the Soup Kitchen organisers who have worked together to allow us to take on the third weekend.”

The Markets will be open:-

Thursday 24 Nov, 1 & 8 Dec                10:00 - 20:00 (late night shopping in St Helier)

Friday 25 Nov, 2 Dec & 9 Dec              10:00 - 18:00

Saturday 26 Nov, 3 Dec & 10               10:00 - 18:00

Sunday 27 Nov, 6 Dec & 11                 10:00 - 17:00
