Organiser June Chadband said: “We thank all the customers who have attended in the past months, particularly for being so patient queuing and adhering to all the guidelines.

“We are also welcoming lots of children with their parents, and hopefully, they will be our future shoppers.

“We also thank all for the continued support of our artisan producers and growers. They really do appreciate it, especially over the last difficult year. Thanks also goes to the men who prepare the site each month for the market, in all weathers from 7am and to the volunteers from Cliftonville Residents Association, who have over the years given their time for free to the community, especially to Cliftonville.

“The CRA is extremely proud of its market and all the accolades received over nearly 20 years.”

    • There is parking outside the market on Eastern Esplanade. If you can get to the market early, you should be able to get a parking spot.
