The Grand Victorian Market

The heart and soul of our fair! Stroll through the bustling market in the historic town centre. Our traders, in full period dress, will be offering unique gifts, handcrafted items, and delicious festive food and drink. Soak up the sights, sounds, and smells of a truly traditional Christmas.

Dress the Part! Join the Celebration!

This year, you are the main attraction! We warmly invite all our visitors to embrace the spirit of the event by dressing in Victorian costume. From splendid top hats and elegant bonnets to simple shawls and flat caps, every effort helps to create a wonderfully immersive atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.

Vintage Fun Fair & Santa's Grotto

Enjoy classic rides on our beautiful vintage fun fair or take the little ones for a magical visit with Father Christmas in his grotto. Both attractions are open from 28th Nov - 23rd Dec! Santa's Grotto is ticketed and pre-booking is advised.

A Weekend of Festive Atmosphere

Our Victorian Fayre will be filled with entertainment to delight all ages. The celebration begins with the traditional Christmas Light Switch-On on Friday evening.

Live Music Stage

Adding to the festive cheer is a full weekend of live music. We're delighted to welcome 90s pop favourites East 17 for a special performance on Friday night, <insert act> takes to the stage on Saturday evening, and the incredible Adele tribute Natalie Black to close the festival on Sunday afternoon. A full schedule will be available closer to the event.
