About this event
Little Bird Markets takes over Briggate in Leeds city centre once a month, bringing together makers, creators, and artists selling their handmade and independent work right on the high street. It is an outdoor market, so it has a relaxed, open feel that makes it easy to wander through with a pushchair or with children in tow.
You can expect a mix of stalls from local and independent sellers, with the kind of unique items you won't find on the high street. It's a good opportunity to pick up something a little different and support the people who made it directly.
Briggate is well connected by public transport and sits in the heart of Leeds city centre, with multi-storey car parks nearby if you're driving in. As an outdoor event, it's worth dressing for the weather, particularly in spring.

Top tips
- Arrive early for the best pick of handmade goods before popular stalls sell out.
- Briggate is a pedestrianised street, so pushchairs get around easily.
- Bring cash as many independent makers may not take card payments.
- Pop into nearby Trinity Leeds if you need toilets or a warm-up break.
- Check Little Bird Markets' social pages beforehand to see which makers are attending.
