A free-entry Christmas market and festive fair in St Enoch Square, Glasgow city centre, with gift and food stalls, a festive bar and a solar-powered observation wheel.

St Enoch Square, at the foot of Buchanan Street, hosts the city-centre half of Glasgow's Winter Wonderland. Artisan gift and craft vendors sell decorations, personalised baubles and festive treats, with food stalls offering bratwurst, churros, Dutch pancakes and doughnuts.

There is a covered, licensed festive bar with free live entertainment every day, a handful of family rides and a solar-powered observation wheel with an accessible capsule.

Entry is free and you pay only for rides and food. The organisers say the site is fully accessible, has toilets including accessible ones, and allows dogs on leads. Central and Queen Street stations are a short walk away.
