A spokesman for The Independent said: "With so many Christmas markets to choose from, we’ve rounded up the very best the UK has to offer.
"It's important to allow yourself to enjoy this most wonderful time of the year and revel in the Yuletide spirit.
"With the majority of Christmas markets opening up to the public mid-November, there’s still time to choose which destination you will visit for a bit of present shopping, a catch-up with friends over mince pies and browsing stalls or a family day out to put you in the festive mood."
Ranked 19th, the market will run from Thursday, November 26 to Saturday, November 28, 2026, and promises festive cheer in a truly unique setting.
More than 50 stallholders from across Suffolk will display their goods under the cathedral’s 16th-century nave arcade, offering a selection of crafts, gifts and seasonal treats.
Visitors will be able to browse stalls while enjoying carol singers and live music, with entry priced at £2 per person.
In addition to the market, tours of the cathedral’s 46-metre Millennium Tower will be available each day at 11am.
These can be booked in advance through the cathedral’s website.
The market offers the perfect opportunity for gift shopping, catching up with friends over festive food and drink, or simply soaking up the seasonal atmosphere in historic surroundings.
