BRIGG MARKETS CHECKLIST IN RUN-UP TO CHRISTMAS

 

Today (Saturday, November 28)  sees the monthly Brigg Farmers' Market being held in the town centre, from 9am to 3pm.
That's quite easy to work out, as the market does businesses on the fourth Saturday of the month.
However, there will be an important exception to this rule next month. Vitally important, we might say, as December's  is usually the best-supported of the year (weather permitting) as everyone stocks up on tasty goodies for Christmas.
So take careful note that SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19 will see the Pre-Christmas Brigg Farmers' Market 2015 (having been brought forward one week).
While checking those dates for you with North Lincolnshire Council, which manages the markets, we thought we'd better seek confirmation of the general market dates for the next few weeks.
Our thanks go to Vicki Brooks, the authority's Events Management Officer, for furnishing the official list.
Dates of Brigg's general markets in the run up to Christmas are: 

Thursday and Saturday, December 3 & 5 - from 9am - 4pm.
Thursday and Saturday, December 10 & 12 - from 9am - 4pm.
Thursday and Saturday,  December 17 & 19 - from 9am - 4pm.
Thursday  December 24 - from 9am - 1pm. 
Christmas Eve will see a roaring trade being done in  fruit, veg, nuts and other festive essentials. Our advice is to get there ahead of the 9am  opening.
