Sheffield Christmas Market will return to Fargate, Pinstone Street and The Moor, while the city centre will also boast an artificial ice rink, big wheel and snow slide.
The markets start on 12 November and will be open between 10:00-18:00 each day until Christmas Eve.
Food and drink outlets will be open throughout, with the bars open for an extra hour on Fridays and Saturdays.
For the first time, a free, ticketed celebration will be held on Devonshire Green over the opening weekend.
Councillor Ben Miskell, chair of the city council’s economic development, skills and culture committee, said: “It’s going to be Sheffield’s biggest and most ambitious Christmas ever.”
