Christmas in Truro runs from 21 November to 24 December 2026. Visit Truro’s official guide describes festive lights, seasonal shopping, events and markets across the city centre, including the return of Truro Christmas Market on Lemon Quay.
That six-week span covers the wider Christmas in Truro programme rather than one continuous event running every day. Individual market hours, late-night shopping dates and any parade details come out closer to the season, so check Visit Truro’s what’s-on page before planning a specific evening.
Visitor information
Dates: Saturday 21 November to Thursday 24 December 2026.
Location: Truro city centre. Exact venues will vary across the programme.
Admission: Not yet confirmed for the programme as a whole. Street shopping and markets may be open access while individual activities use tickets.

The official 2026 guide also lists Truro’s New Year’s Eve fireworks for 31 December, but that is a separate event and is not included in the Christmas in Truro date range above.
