Welcome To Faversham Market

Mentioned in the Domesday book and located in the heart of Faversham’s historic town centre, with its stilted Guildhall, town pump and medieval buildings as a backdrop, we are very proud of our market and its status as the oldest market in Kent.

Faversham’s Charter Market runs on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays every week, selling a range of local produce, household items, plants, collectibles and other interesting bits and pieces. We also have two monthly markets – Best of Faversham Arts, Crafts and Food Market – on the first and third Saturday of the month in Preston Street and Faversham Antiques and Vintage Market is held in the Market Place and Court Street on the first Sunday of every month, except January and September.

Faversham Christmas Markets Weekend

A huge thank you to the thousands of visitors who joined us for our Christmas Markets Weekend.  This year we recorded our highest footfall levels and the town was packed full of happy shoppers.

Each day there were around 50 traders selling a fantastic selection of local produce, hand crafted accessories and gifts as well as delicious food and drink.  The festive season is such an important time for local businesses, growers and makers – and our visitors did the town’s market traders and businesses proud.

Thanks to the local bands, choirs and musicians who performed over the weekend, there was a festive vibe and people really enjoyed the Christmassy atmosphere.

Not forgetting the stars of the show – the Happy Endings donkeys who enjoyed plenty of cuddles and carrots from the Market’s visitors.
