🎉 What a celebration! 🎉

Over the weekend, many of our incredible traders and market team threw themselves into the spirit of our 175th anniversary celebrations and dressed up in fashions from across the decades! 🕰️✨

From Victorian characters to retro classics, the Market Hall and Market Place were bursting with colour, laughter and community spirit all weekend long. At the end of Saturday's trading, we managed to gather some of our amazing indoor and outdoor traders together for a quick group photo beneath the bunting for this lovely snapshot 📸❤️

One day, we’ll manage to get every single trader and member of staff together for one gigantic Durham Markets family photo… but until then, this brilliant bunch will do nicely!

A huge thank you to everyone who dressed up, joined in, supported the celebrations and helped make our 175th anniversary so special. Here’s to the next chapter of Durham Markets history 🥂

Been having a little tidy up and refresh at Clairebear Crafts today 🩷✨

Moved a few things around, restocked some favourites and gave the window a bit of love. It’s amazing what a tidy display can do 😍

Lots of little gifts, funny signs, superhero bits, candles, bracelets and cosy goodies all waiting for a new home 🛍️

If you’re passing through Durham Market, come have a nosey 👀
