Bury St Edmunds Christmas Fayre

Bury St Edmunds is a very picturesque town any time of the year but at Christmas it takes on a whole new, magical look and thanks to the Christmas Fayre starting today (!) it’s definitely beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

Starting at 4pm on 27th November until Sunday 30th it’ll go from Angel Hill to the Abbey Gardens, Athenaeum, Hatter Street and Moyses Hall Museum and then into the Apex, Arc shopping centre and the Buttermarket.

There will be entertainment as well as loads and loads of great local businesses offering their festive wares alongside free refreshments, fairground rides and FREE parking!

With over 300 stalls selling a variety of gifts, crafts, food and seasonal products there certainly is something for everyone and with FREE parking it makes ya feel all warm n fuzzy, doesn’t it?

Check out the full details on the website here.

PLEASE NOTE: This event no longer takes place but you can check out the Christmas events in Bury St Edmunds on this website.
