Despite the original event ending four years ago, the phrase 'Lincoln Christmas market' still draws thousands of Google searches each month, according to digital marketing agency Koozai.

The familiar phrase “Lincoln Christmas market” still draws thousands of Google searches each month, despite the former large-scale city-wide event ending after 2022.

Digital marketing agency Koozai found 2,900 estimated average monthly UK searches for the phrase. A separate Lincoln Cathedral Christmas Market is scheduled for December 3-5 2026, but the keyword data cannot show whether people are seeking the former event, the cathedral market or other seasonal activities, says the agency.
