Colin Connolly – 14th December 2016:
Oxford Christmas Market just keeps getting better every year! I recently visited one of the largest Weihnachtsmärkte in the Ruhr region of Germany: the Oxford market boasts a very similar atmosphere, and range of goods for sale!

Kim Lander - 20th December 2016:
It may be small, but the stalls are lovely with beautiful items on sale, many at reasonable prices. I bought more here than I have at any other Christmas market. Lovely atmosphere with the band playing carols, excellent mulled wine and food stalls, very friendly and helpful stall holders. Will definitely be going again.

Eva Zimmermann – 3rd October 2017:
Small, but absolutely perfect. I think a bigger Christmas market wouldn't have the same atmosphere. I have been to many Christmas markets in England and Germany and this one is definitely one of the best. Well done!
