Italian Market Returning To Swansea City Centre

A specialist Italian market will be returning to Swansea city next week. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The market will be available on Oxford Street from Wednesday May 11 to Saturday May 14. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Open from 9am to 5.30pm on all four days, the market will include a wide selection of Italian pasta, bread and pastries. Salami, olives, dried fruits, nuts, fudge and liquorice will also be available. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Swansea Council is again bringing the market to the city centre in partnership with a company called Med Food. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Sarah Lawton, from the council’s city centre team, said: “These markets are always very popular because they add more vibrancy and colour to the city centre, while giving shoppers a wide selection of foods from the continent right on their doorstep. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“The same market was held on Oxford Street at the start of April, so we hope next week’s selection of stalls will be just as popular. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“These types of attractions combine with the indoor market and the city centre’s range of shops and other businesses to make Swansea the regional shopping capital of South West Wales.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
