St George's Named 'Best Market Attraction'
Belfast's historic St George's Market has named 'Best Market Attraction' at the annual National Association of British Market Authorities (NABMA) Awards.
The award has been described as "the significant NABMA award, given to an iconic long standing market".
In their citation, the judges said: "This is a market for others to learn from, and aspire towards, and really is a benchmark for excellence in providing a destination market."
The judges also paid tribute to the market's "huge social media presence".
St George's won the 'Best Large Indoor Market' title at the NABMA awards in 2014, and was voted 'Best Market' at the Observer Food Monthly Awards just this past October. Last year, more than one million people visited the market, with an average of more than 6,500 shoppers passing through its doors each trading day.
