On
the second Thursday of each month, Chesterfield Market hosts the increasingly
popular Farmers Market. Specialist traders from across the East Midlands crowd
onto Low Pavement selling speciality goods from local farms and workshops.
In
July each year, the market place is turned into a Mediaeval Market where many
local charities use the stalls to publicise their work and to boost their funds.
The bottom of Market Square is set out as a fairground with many popular amusement
rides.
On
Sunday 23 November there will be a spectacular Christmas Market held to accompany
the switch-on of the Christmas Illuminations. For more details please click
