It brings in millions of visitors from all over Europe and therefore millions of pounds to the local economy. It’s not for locals, it’s for tourists. I think it’s the largest Christmas market in the world outside of Germany and Austria.
Tbh it makes New St slightly less grey and depressing for 5 weeks a year and it has the added advantage of making all of the good pubs and restaurants in town a lot less busy.
At the end of the day it’s just a bit of fun innit.
The beers crap, the foods crap. It's ridiculously overpriced.
I still sort of like it though. Couldn't tell you why.
Used to like it, now old and grumpy and would rather avoid.
Apparently the sausages are £9?

Happy to pay 9 squad for a sausage. Just not in the New Street frostiness

Got to admit I don't like it ever, but it's been going 20 odd years so they must be doing something right
Ya for other people, Nein for me
Great for bringing punters and their money into the City, but clogs up the centre when trying to get from boozer to boozer
Ya! Ich leibe Pfeffernusse Und Lebkuchen Und dunkel bier.
I paid £6 a few days ago.
Ah just to clarify, it's the massive sausages that are £9.
Before I became a Christian I was a bit of drinker. Got hammered in Munich one year, and had to get the train to Nuremberg the following morning. I was in a state. Bought a giant pretzel at the train station, and an hour later was sober.
Pretzels are the answer!
