Columbia Road flower market and shops are open on Sundays from 8am til 3(ish!). Columbia Road is in the East End, sitting at the edge of the City, with Shoreditch to the west and Brick Lane and Spitalfields also nearby.

Whats on…

The flower market takes place every Sunday but the shop keepers host a range of other events during the year.

Columbia Road Christmas Wednesdays 2025

For many years, the Columbia Road shops have stayed open for late night Christmas shopping 5-9pm every Wednesday in the lead up to 25th December. This is a great opportunity to pick up some unique gifts in a festive local environment, with a Christmas tree, mince pies, mulled wine, and to visit the local pubs, cafes and restaurants, without the crowds. This year’s dates are November 26th, and 3rd, 10th, 17th December. Please note there will be no road closure nor carol singing or entertainment but plenty of other Christmas cheer. We look forward to welcoming you soon!
