With thousands of visitors every week, Ely’s range of regular and specially-themed markets are full of life and an experience in itself.
A unique blend of tradition and innovation, our markets have been at the heart of the community for more than 800 years.
Experience the unique combination of local produce, vibrant crafts and street food from all over the world.
Ely Market
You’ll find a warm welcome from our traders who love what they do, with quality, value and sustainability at heart – all the right ingredients for a perfect market.
Why not pick up some local produce to make up a picnic and enjoy in the beautiful rural landscapes of the district? Or stock up with fresh ingredients to take back to your self-catering accommodation or to take home for a delicious East Cambs feast to remind you of your stay.
