After all the turbulence of the past 18 months, it’s no surprise that people want to pull out all the stops this Christmas. And what could be more magical and festive than visiting one of UK’s best Christmas markets, with all the sights, sounds and smells that make this the most wonderful time of the year?
They make shopping a joy. Set in vibrant and historic places, decorated to the max. The emphasis is on unique gifts, artisan wares and gourmet treats.
Hyde Park, London
An event for everyone – from children’s rides and Santa’s grotto in Santa Land, to cosy chalet bars and DJ sets in the Bavarian village. For a wintry feel, head to the Magical Ice Kingdom, then check out what’s on offer at the Street Food quarter. For shopping, there are 100 traditional wooden huts to browse, making this the UK’s largest outdoor market.
Runs from 19 November 2021 to 3 January 2022; hydeparkwinterwonderland.com
