Leyburn Market

Held every Friday in the heart of the town, Leyburn Market is a long-standing tradition that reflects the character and charm of this Wensleydale community. Set in the spacious Market Place, the market brings together a variety of stalls offering fresh produce, local meats, cheeses, baked goods, plants, clothing, and household items.

The market begins at 7am, and most traders will be there until 4pm.

Leyburn Town Council maintains the market as a vital part of the town’s identity, ensuring it remains a welcoming and vibrant shopping experience. The market’s open layout and friendly atmosphere make it easy to explore, and its location—surrounded by independent shops, cafés, and pubs—encourages visitors to linger and enjoy the town.

What makes Leyburn’s market unique is its setting: perched in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, with sweeping views and a strong sense of community. Unlike larger markets in neighbouring towns, Leyburn’s retains a distinctly rural feel, with traders and shoppers often on first-name terms.

Whether you’re picking up essentials or enjoying a leisurely morning out, Leyburn Market offers a warm welcome and a true taste of Dales life.
