The Yulefest Christmas Market is magically set with the beautiful backdrop of Kilkenny Castle. Decorated wooden huts, and Santa hat marquees will be serving festive treats and selling creative local crafts. A beautiful and easy place to meander or to pick up the perfect Christmas gift. Each weekend the market will have family entertainment and feature live music on the Festival Bandstand.
The Yulefest Christmas Market begins on November 25th, with Santa’s arrival and runs 11am-6pm every weekend until Saturday the 23rd of December. With a special late opening for the Festive Friday Finale on 22nd of December till 8pm.
