Charter Market
What is a Charter Market?
The Charter Market is a twice-weekly retail market held in Salisbury Market Square run by the City Council. The market is held every Tuesday and Saturday, except on the third Tuesday in October (due to the annual fair).
The market is open from 8am until 4pm on both days, except between Christmas and Easter when it closes at 3.30pm.
The Tuesday and Saturday market comprises of a similar range of approximately 90 stalls of various sizes, along with 12 farmers' stalls. All stalls are allocated to regulars. Traders supply their own stalls, but the council owns and erects the 12 stalls used in the farmers' section.
There is also a fortnightly Farmer's Market and three times a year a two day continental market. The Continential Market's next vist to Salisbury will be 2nd and 3rd September 2010.
Vehicles
A small number of the traders' vehicles park on the market but the remainder park in the central car park, which is only a few minutes away from the market.

Casuals
Casual traders are welcome but can only be allocated a space if a regular trader does not turn up. Many casuals are turned away due to a good attendance record by the regulars, but anyone turning up must have in their possession public liability insurance cover which is inspected before any pitches are allocated. If you cannot produce your valid insurance cover you will not be permitted to trade should a stall be available.
