Bradford on Avon Town Market

Our town market takes place every Thursday from 8am to 1pm at the Bridge Street (library) car park.

We know that town market is an important part of the community and gives residents and visitors the chance to pick up quality goods at great prices.

Since we took responsibility for the market in 2022, the market has thrived and is a highlight for many in the town.

By creating a diverse and appealing market, we believe it will bring people into the centre of Bradford on Avon.

If you are a fan of the market or just curious about what it offers, you can follow it on Facebook and Instagram.
