Experience the friendly face of shopping at one of England's oldest markets, home to Great Yarmouth's central market, open six days a week from Monday to Saturday. The covered central market has a range of takeaway food and fresh grocery stalls as well as stalls selling useful household goods. Market day takes place twice a week, on Wednesday and Saturday all year round, with more stalls springing

up on the cobbled area of the market place and traders arriving in town from the local area to ply their goods. An extra Friday market often takes place in the summer months when the seaside resort is even busier.
