Take a stroll around the Indoor Christmas Markets over at the Civic Centre, visit the historical St Alkmund’s annual Nativity Festival or enjoy a shopping experience like no other with Whitchurchs unique independent shops and eateries.
Throughout the day they’ll be live music performances and children’s entertainment including carol singing, panto characters and fairground rides.
