Bradford’s Darley Street Market opening this Summer

West & North Yorkshire welcomes the good news that Bradford’s Darley Street Market will be opening this Summer.

The market will open its doors to businesses and the public on Saturday July 12.

A market will feature multi–level shopping with members of the public able to enjoy a mixture of local, regional and national food, clothing, cosmetics and enjoy the scenery with an outdoor seating area and large screen for people to enjoy live events.

Bradford and West Yorkshire based business Schofield Sweeney has said “It is great to have a firm opening date for Darley Street Market. It is a fantastic space and will inject yet more vibrancy into the City Centre. The additional food offers on the top floor especially will add to the city’s leisure offer, a big plus in attracting people to come work in Bradford during the day, as well as enjoy leisure time in the evenings and weekends.” – Graham Sweeney

The news follows a recent surge in visitors to the city centre, with Bradford BID recently reporting footfall having increased by 25 per cent compared to the same period in 2024. Bradford Chamber President Mark Cowgill said: “It is fantastic news. I personally can’t wait to explore the new market and enjoy a lunch or three there with friends.
