Cardiff Central Market has been going since the 1700s and has been at this site for more than a century. The Victorian structure houses a variety of traders, selling fresh produce to homeware, clothing, records and more. The market is a five-minute walk from Cardiff Castle, so stop by for some cake and coffee from Celtic Corner, Donnellys or Bull Terrier Café.
Cardiff city centre is dominated by its 2,000-year-old medieval castle but stroll a little further and you’ll find another of its unique charms – the many Victorian arcades that run between the main shopping streets. Today they’re filled with independent cafés and shops – perfect territory for shopping. That is if you have time between all of the Welsh capital’s ace activities. Remember: if you revisit this page in early April, you’ll find an all-new selection of events. Enjoy!
