17th November – 31st December 2016
The Grounds of All saints Church Clarence Street Kingston Upon Thames Surrey KT1 1JS
We return to Royal Kingston Town Centre for our fagship event in the lead up to Christmas. 2016 brought many changes to the set up and, at the time of writing, it is too early to assess their effect. It is likely, however, that they will have proved benefcial to business in the whole of Kingston town centre.

The Eden Crafts marquee will be situated on All Saints Parish Church Green as before, but the rest of the town will see huge developments in a bid to turn Kingston into the largest town centre Christmas event in the UK, surpassing Manchester, Birmingham and York. Town centre management have based their layout on Berlin which has the largest Christmas market in Germany, which has a far eastern flavour; stalls being housed in shedding with pointed roofs. These feature throughout the town, stretching through the market square and along High Street to the Rose Theatre, and alongside the Bentall centre etc. On the Opposite side of the green is a large bar area, and a podium on which various singers and musicians will perform throughout the day.
All of this will enhance the appeal of Kingston in the Christmas trading period and improves the footfall in the Eden Crafts marquee. There will be wooden flooring and overnight security.
Our Craft and Gift Fair is always an excellent opportunity for exhibitors to sell directly to the public in the affluent Royal Borough of Kingston. The town centre attracts around 20 million visitors a year and up to 500,000 per week during the peak Christmas trading period.
