BRADFORD Industrial Museum's annual Victorian Christmas Market attracted over 17,000 visitors in 2019.
The weekend long event, held each year in late November, sees dozens of market stalls, crafts, food, music and an appearance by Santa and Ebenezer Scrooge.
A report by Bradford Council highlighting recent highlights of the museum service reveals that over the two days of the market, 17,000 people visited the Moorside Mills museum, in Eccleshill.
A meeting of the local Cultural Voice partnership was held at the same museum, and attracted 60 delegates from cultural organisations across the district.

The report, which goes before the Council's Regeneration and Environment Scrutiny Committee next Thursday, also reveals that a festive fair at Bolling Hall, run by the Friends of Bowling Park, in early December saw 500 people attend.
And over 300 people attended the launch of a new British Press Photography exhibition in Cartwright Hall in November.
Members will be given an update on the museum service at the meeting, in City Hall at 5pm on January 9.
