Blackburn Market is situated at the heart of Blackburn, Lancashire and is a modern market hall. We still have all the traditional traders you would expect from a market but all undercover. We have a food court, fresh food and non-food stalls and shops. We have toilets, free to use cash machine, baby changing facilities. We are also home to Blackburn Visitor Information Centre and Shopmobility. Lots of available car parks and we are open 6 days a week Monday to Saturday.
Love coming to the market for my fish, fruit and veg and meals. The cockles are great in the vinegar and the cafes in there offer good food. Loads to look at in terms of clothing and souvenirs.
