The latest in the successful series of Wirral Council’s innovative Youth Market is coming to Birkenhead in the run up to Christmas – and it’s set to be the biggest yet.

With over 70 young entrepreneurs and performers set to showcase their skills at the event, there will be something for everyone to enjoy while supporting Wirral’s local talent and picking up unique, locally made Christmas gifts.

There will also be FREE fairground rides on the day, visits from Santa and the Grinch to get you in the Christmas spirit, as well as stalls in the market and food vendors St Werburgh’s Square (11am–5pm).

Previous Youth Markets in Wirral have welcomed more than 20,000 visitors between them. And a number of previous stallholders have launched and built successful ventures, such as Jelley Bakes and The Possible Kitchen who have been nominated for awards at the National Market Traders Federation.

Wirral Youth Market is funded by the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, through the City Region’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) allocation.

Where: Birkenhead Market’s outdoor covered area next to the bus station
When: Saturday 13th December, 10am – 4pm
