We’re hosting a Christmas Market in London Bridge this November
See you at The Ministry on Saturday 7th & Sunday 8th November.
A Christmas Market in London Bridge!? Yes! We are so proud to announce we will be returning to The Ministry for a pop-up Christmas Market this November.
The market will run for two days over the weekend, on Saturday 7th & Sunday 8th November 2026 giving you two full days to discover and shop with cool small brands all under one roof. Just give minutes away from London Bridge station, and right next to not one, not two, but three tube stations! Your perfect day out to get some Christmas shopping done and get into the festive spirit right in central London.
There are three rooms of traders here! One room on your left as you walk in, and two rooms on your right! Make sure you walk through to find them all.
As always you can expect to find a wide variety of gorgeous handmade and vintage treasures at this market with plenty of gift ideas, and a wide range of price points. Things like stickers and washi tapes will start from just a few pounds. We always curate our markets to give you a variety of incredible unique things to discover and buy: art, jewellery, ceramics, fashion, handbags, beauty, bag charms, hair accessories, homeware, vintage and more! Our markets aren’t the biggest but we do believe our curation is the best. Prepare to be wowed and get lots ticked off your to-buy list for friends and family.
The Ministry is the perfect place to spend your winter weekend, not only because our market will be there but because it’s centrally located in London, has easy access on the tube and train, and there’s loooooads of other restaurants, bars and things to in the immediate vicinity. It’s just a short walk from the famous Borough Market, the Thames, the Fashion & Textile Museum, an Everyman Cinema and loads more. It also has a bar with delicious cocktails to really help you get into an xmassy mood!
