As of yesterday (July 31), the market is now open from 10am to 8pm on Sunday to Wednesday, and 10am to 10pm on Thursday to Saturday.

Based by Rhyl's promenade, the multi-million-pound development opened on Thursday, July 10 for the first time, and boasts street food, cakes and treats, and "make your own gin".

There is also a leisure space with shuffleboard, darts, football tables, a double-sided bar, booths to relax and watch TV, and a large flexible events space.

Midlands Events (Rhyl) Ltd is managing the day-to-day operational management of the market, meanwhile.

Cllr Jason McLellan, Denbighshire County Council leader and lead member for economic growth and tackling deprivation, said: "This new project will be transformational for the town, and will act as a catalyst for regeneration by creating jobs and increasing footfall in Rhyl.

"The Queen's Market will bring a modern, high-quality food and retail offering, right to the heart of Rhyl, with brilliant access to the prom and the beach."

Andrew Burnett, director at Midlands Events (Rhyl), said: "We are very excited to be working alongside Denbighshire County Council on this project.

"We have been working hard, along with the council, to create a custom-built facility which will provide a new and exciting venue for the town of Rhyl.

"We have put together a good mix of retailers, with a strong emphasis on quality and service, which will complement and work well with the programme of entertainment we are working to showcase at the events hall, as well as the outside areas."
