A popular international market is set to return to Carlisle city centre.
Shoppers will be spoilt for choice with a huge mix of authentic continental treats in the city centre.
Organised by Market Place Europe, the award-winning International Market is supported by Cumberland Council.
The event will include a great selection of arts, crafts and unique gifts.
For food lovers, there will be a tempting selection of continental and international flavours to sample. There will also be a great selection of fresh foods.
The Box Bar will also be on site serving cold beers and other beverages.
An ancient Proclamation will be recited at the Market Cross on Saturday 29 August at 10am. The Proclamation is a declaration of Carlisle's rights to hold an annual Fair in August, originally granted to the citizens of the city in 1352 by King Edward III.
