2024 Festive & Christmas Shopping Events
Share
It's festive market season!
I've got four events coming up this festive season, across Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and in Oxfordshire.
Two of them are totally new events to me, in fantastic locations, which I'm really excited about. And of course I'm going back to some more local ones that are always a treat to do.
I've put more info below about when I'll be where, and links where possible to more information too.
And if you can't get to visit in person, don't forget you can always still support events by liking/sharing social media posts and giving a follow to the other small businesses who might be taking part. Plus, the majority of them you can shop with online too so it's still worth a peek even if you can't come to see our smiley faces!
Saturday 2nd November
Incredible Makers Market, Kettering Arts Centre
Organised by a super-group of small business owners and makers, this market has a tightly curated group of businesses taking part.
Which is fabulous for shoppers as you know the range of things on offer will be wide and the quality of items high! So perfect for starting your festive shopping!
Tickets are available on the door, and the first 50 households through will get goodie bags too!

Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th November
Stowe Christmas Fayre, Stowe House
A 2-day event held at the stunning Grade-1 listed historic Stowe House just outside Buckingham. A number of the beautiful state rooms will be transformed providing a unique backdrop to shop with a range of local small businesses, including yours truly.
Plus there'll be food and drink vendors with delicious coffee, mulled wine and other festive treats to enjoy in the gorgeous surroundings.
Please note this is a ticketed event, and they won't be available on the door. So get booked in here.
Saturday 7th December
The Makers Marketplace Christmas Market, Bicester
After a great event last year I'll be back at the Kingsmere Community Centre in early December for my most local market of the season.
Showcasing a wide range of small businesses and designers/makers local to Bicester, there's lots to see and do for all the family at this event, as well as treating yourselves!
