Our Next Truro Market: Saturday 16th May | 9:00 - 13:00
The festive season is settling in at The Farmyard Market, bringing a warm and community‑led atmosphere to our countryside setting in Truro.
The market becomes a relaxed space filled with local makers, festive treats, and moments that capture the heart of a Cornish Christmas. It is a lovely way to enjoy the season with family and friends, especially for anyone looking for festive things to do in Truro or a gentle Christmas day out in Cornwall.
Christmas changes the entire feel of the market!
Soft lights glow, winter greenery fills the stalls, and the sound of festive tunes drifts through the air. The whole space feels relaxed and welcoming, making it a lovely spot to slow down and enjoy the season.
As part of our Christmas Market in Truro experience, traders bring plenty of Christmas treats to explore, and many create seasonal specials that only appear during this time of year.
Visitors can discover limited-edition bakes, festive preserves, handmade decorations, and thoughtful gifts that make lovely surprises for friends and family. Every week offers something new, and the relaxed buzz around the stalls adds to the joy of finding pieces you will not see outside the Christmas season.
The Farmyard Market feels especially magical at this time of year.
Rustic decorations, soft lights, and a farmstead backdrop come together to create a cosy festive atmosphere. Embrace the joy of Christmas, chat with traders, and soak up the seasonal spirit.
One of the most‑loved parts of the Christmas season at the market is Santa’s Grotto, offering families a gentle and memorable festive experience. It is a family‑friendly space designed to help little ones feel relaxed and excited, making it one of the most enjoyable family Christmas activities in Truro as they meet Santa.
Children can step into Santa’s cosy grotto, share their Christmas wishes, and take home a special gift. Each slot lasts 15 minutes and is kept personal, with space for up to four children and two accompanying adults.
Babies under 12 months may attend free with a paying sibling, making it a flexible option for families with little ones.
A few simple guidelines help keep the experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone. Bookings are for set times, so arriving promptly helps avoid delays. Gifts may include food items, so parents can check allergens before leaving the grotto. Group sizes are kept small to maintain a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere for all families.
Bookings are open and can be made through our ticket partner.
Full details, availability, and terms can be found here: Book Santa’s Grotto.
Slots fill quickly each year, so early booking is recommended.
Visitors joining us at the Christmas Market can also order their Christmas roast directly from Tresemple Farm.
Tresemple Farm’s team will be available throughout the market to help with Christmas roast choices. Visitors can chat with them about cuts, serving sizes, cooking ideas, and collection options.
Tresemple Farm takes great care in raising high‑quality beef and lamb. Many visitors choose their Christmas centrepiece here each year, and the roasts often become a favourite tradition. Choosing your roast at the market gives you the chance to learn more about how the meat is produced and to bring home a centrepiece full of Cornish flavour.
You can also browse more about the farm’s produce on their website.
Our Christmas Market, hosted at Tresemple Farm, offers a festive and convenient day out for anyone exploring Cornwall this season, especially for anyone looking for Truro Christmas events.
