CHRISTMAS markets with free food and drink are popping up all over the UK – but you'll have to be quick.

The festive stalls are part of Tesco's annual jolly efforts – with Santa visiting for the kids and games galore, too.



Christmas-themed tasters and drinks are spread out across a number of stalls, which are covered in twinkling lights and mistletoe.

TikTok user Emilie Musson visited her local pop-up in Nottingham – and raved about it to her followers.

She showed off all the treats she got to try – including booze and zero-percent alcohol drinks.
