Glasgow has one (twinned with Nuremberg).
Birmingham has one (twinned with Frankfurt).
Leeds has one (no idea who they're twinned with).

London - bloody capital city has nada.

Oh, sorry, unless you count the utter crock of shite that is the Southbank "German-styled" market: nothing authentic about it whatsoever, no German stall holders to speak of, but the usual Christmas tat only sold from a wooden chalet!

I WANT A GERMAN CRISTKINDLMARKT IN LONDON PLEASE

Over and out.

To be fair, the German markets aren't about drinking till you are sick. I think that is the Brit interpretation. You don't see a lot of falling over drunk folk at the German markets in Germany.

Too true MmeL, or so my DH tells me.
Nothing like a festive bunch of pissed British teenagers to really get the market party going eh!
