Oxford’s historic Covered Market will celebrate 250 years of continuous trade with a big birthday bash on Friday 13 September from 7.30 pm.
It’s not every day a market gets to celebrate such a milestone so, as part of the year-long celebration, the Council has arranged a free party to honour the Market’s history and all the people that have been a part of it since it opened in 1774.
During the evening, guests can expect a variety of delights, including:
Tickets for the party are free, however, they must be booked in advance and are limited to two per booking. You can find ticket information on this website.
