A whole lot of love for Preston Markets

31 May 2024

Preston Market has been at the heart of the city for almost 150 years.

The Victorian canopy, completed in 1857 is distinct amidst its surroundings, buzzing with hard working and much-loved traders, selling a range of locally sourced produce and freshly prepared food, with a friendly and welcoming, northern atmosphere.

What our customer say

We asked our customers what they love about their local market, here are a few of the responses we got:
