I visit the Frankfurt Christmas Market every year in Birmingham because it is so festive and the food is absoloutely amazing. It is located conveniently right by the train station and in the pedestrian zone of Birmingham off the main shopping street and is open day and night. It brightens up Birmingham with the German style stalls selling everything from clothing to crafts to delicious German food. It is always lit up at night and the carousel and characters walking around make it delightful for children. The downside is that it is very expenisve for the food and with the wonderful smells coming from a variety of stalls it is impossible to resist buying it! It can also get quite busy, especially afternoons and early evening. However there's a great festive atmosphere and even if you dont want to spend money it is a pleasure to walk around and just take in the ambience. There are also a few bars put up there selling warm firepunch and German beer, although if you have children it can get a bit noisy around those areas later in the evening but they are conveniently placed together so if you want to avoid them you can. I would definitely recommend anyone going to Birmingham or the Midlands around Christmas time to visit the market even if only for a stroll around as it will really put you into the Christmas spirit!
