Christmas Continental Market
The Christmas Continental Market will return to City Hall from Tuesday 17 November to Saturday 19 December.

And there will be the usual selection of delightful aromas and tastes to tempt you from the wide variety of German, Irish, Russian and European market traders.

St George's Christmas Fair and Market also takes place on 6 and 7 December, offering a wide range of gourmet foods and festive crafts.


Santa's Postbox
Santa's Postbox is open in the grounds of City Hall from Tuesday 17 November to Friday 18 December 2009. So local children can make sure they get their lists to Father Christmas in plenty of time for the big day.

Every child who sends a letter will receive a personal response from the big man himself.
