Reading's main festive draw is the Broad Street Christmas Market in the pedestrianised town-centre shopping street, running for weeks rather than a single weekend, alongside a separate one-day Reading Town Hall Christmas Market and smaller fairs in nearby Caversham and villages.

Reading Borough Council and the town's BID had not published 2026 dates as of late July 2026. The most recent edition (2025–26) ran 15 November 2025 to 2 January 2026 on Broad Street — the closest available pattern for planning purposes.

Planning your visit

Reading is a 25–30 minute direct train from London Paddington, making it a straightforward day trip. Broad Street itself sits a short walk from Reading station through the Oracle shopping centre.

Because Reading's market historically runs into early January, it is a realistic option for a post-Christmas or New Year shopping trip when many shorter European markets have already closed.

When is the Reading Christmas market in 2026?: Not yet officially announced as of late July 2026. The 2025–26 Broad Street Christmas Market ran 15 November to 2 January — check Reading BID or Reading Borough Council's site closer to autumn for the confirmed 2026 dates.
Where is the Reading Christmas market?: On Broad Street, the pedestrianised shopping street in central Reading, a short walk from Reading station via the Oracle centre.
Are there other Christmas markets near Reading?: Yes — recent years have also seen a one-day Reading Town Hall Christmas Market and a Caversham Christmas Market in early December, both smaller than the main Broad Street market.
