A POP-UP bar and festive market is being launched in Haworth on Saturday (November 25).
Candy Cane Lane will then be open every weekend, Friday to Sunday, in the run up to Christmas.
It will be based at the former Wharenui premises, in Main Street.
Candy cane hot chocolate, gingerbread lattes and mulled wine will be served up, whilst independent retailers are showcased.
Behind the venture is Leeds-based Tailors Secret Speakeasy.
Jamila Juma-Waré, co-owner with Matt Wignall, says: "We are delighted to be launching in Haworth – for five weeks only.
"We're joining with neighbouring businesses at the bottom of Main Street to set the area alight with festive cheer!
"The pop-up will showcase a selection of independent retailers, which will be rotated each weekend."
Goods on offer will range from scented candles and handmade jewellery to bird boxes and baby clothing.
Businesses will include Drapers Luxury Spirits, Miss Hue Designs, EcoBeez, Little Seasons, Fuhara Candles, Nefertem Healing Space, The Grey Workshop and Little Dots Melting Pots.
Jamila adds: "Haworth is well known for bringing Christmas to life, with the twinkling lights and event-filled weekends."
