With roots tracing back to 1710, the outdoor markets have grown from modest beginnings into a shopper's paradise and serve as important spaces for traders, shoppers and community spirit. If you're a group, a family or friends or just looking to escape for the day, Stockton-on-Tees Markets are definitely worth a visit.

The Tees Valley's largest outdoor market
Known as 'The Queen of the North', Stockton Market boasts up to 100 stalls each week, selling everything from fresh food, fashion, jewellery, flowers and haberdashery. There's always something interesting to see and buy at the largest outdoor market in the Tees Valley.

There's also incredible food offerings across the three markets in the Borough, where you can try homemade pies, burgers and flame grilled meats, cakes and treats, as well as sample an array of food cuisines.

A piece of history
At the heart of the Borough's retail scene since 1710, taking place on the historic High Street, Stockton Market is home to an array of traders with businesses spanning generations. The very first Stockton Market took place over 700 years ago, in front of the iconic Town Hall.

A thriving community
Running speciality events like Love Your Local Market, Young Traders Markets and Stockton Sparkles always brings fantastic crowds to the area to discover more. Free, family-friendly activities also take place during the school holidays.

The market is set to remain at the centre of the town's exciting waterfront development which will create a stunning urban park and riverside plaza, capable of hosting world-class events and leisure opportunities.
