Ripon market

Ripon is held every Thursday from 7:30am until 3pm. Ripon also has a smaller market every Saturday from 7:30am until 2pm.

Ripon market is held on the Market Place, Ripon, HG4 1BZ

It takes place every Thursday from 7:30am until mid-afternoon, and a smaller market every Saturday from 7.30am until 2pm throughout the year, except Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day.

Ripon is one of the smallest and most picturesque cities in England, situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. It boasts a stunning Gothic cathedral and a historic market that dates back to the 11th century, with the obelisk in the market square erected in 1702.

The Thursday market offers a range of essential goods, including fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, cheese, eggs, homemade cakes, savoury bakes and locally reared meat. You can also find ladies' and gents' fashion, bags and scarves, phone accessories and watch repairs, household refillable essentials, fresh flowers, plants, and more. The smaller Saturday market features fruit and vegetables, locally grown plants, and locally reared meat.

Ripon market is operated by North Yorkshire Council along with Thirsk, Northallerton, Helmsley, Pickering, Whitby and Scarborough Market Hall & Vaults.

There's always room for more traders too. You can trade as frequently as you choose, so come and be part of our markets community. You can apply for a market pitch online or contact us.
