With a month to go until Christmas, the countdown to December 25 is well and truly under way and everywhere you turn there is a Christmas market or festive event.
Here we look back at photos of festive markets in Oxford and across Oxfordshire.
READ AGAIN: Oxford’s Victorian Christmas Market
Shoppers in Broad Street have already enjoyed a Victorian Christmas market, which ran from November 17 to November 20.
Now they can look forward to Oxford Christmas Market in the same street, which runs from December 1 to December 18.
Broad Street has recently been pedestrianised, with new seating and planters but this has not got in the way of the street markets.
Parking in the street has been removed and while some have welcomed the new street scheme costing £500,000, others are opposed to it.
