George Square Christmas market axed but St Enoch event to go ahead

The George Square Christmas market has been cancelled.

A spokesperson for Glasgow Loves Christmas said the team was unable to create “a mutually agreeable” plan to use the city centre venue this festive season.

However, the group confirmed the return of the St Enoch Square market in November later this year.

A spokesperson for Glasgow Loves Christmas said: “The Glasgow Loves Christmas team explored every option with the Glasgow Christmas Market operator to make George Square markets possible this Christmas.

“Unfortunately we haven’t been able to create a mutually agreeable plan for this venue.

“We are looking forward to the return of the markets in St Enoch Square which will run from around November 21/22 until December 23.”
