Christmas Fair 2025

Do You Hear What I Hear? It’s nearly time for the Christmas Fair

The much-loved North Wootton Village Hall Christmas Fair is back on Saturday 29th November 2025, bringing with it a sleigh-load of festive fun and local cheer.

This year’s Fair will once again feature our Christmas Craft and Gift Market, freshly cut Christmas trees, festive food and drink, and live seasonal entertainment — plus the always popular FREE visits to meet Father Christmas’ reindeer!

We’re delighted to welcome the Mayor of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, Councillor Andy Bullen, to officially open the Fair and join in the celebrations.

The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear

In a twinkling, I heard on the roof, the prancing and pawing of each little hoof

Between 11am and 3pm, two of Father Christmas’ real reindeer will be visiting with their sleigh – perfect for festive photos and “ELF-ies”!

Christmas time, mistletoe and wine

Something special is coming to this year’s Christmas Market — collectable Glühwein mugs.

Each time you buy a mulled wine and a mince pie, you’ll receive your drink in one of our beautiful mugs, yours to keep and enjoy at home. It’s a little piece of Christmas cheer to remember the season — or to begin a collection that grows year after year.

Season’s Eatings

Elf and Safety

All stallholder spaces are currently filled for this year’s Fair.

If you’d like to be added to our waiting list, please complete the application form below.

Snow Parking Zone

Free parking is available at The Woottons Surgery on Priory Lane, just a short walk from the Village Hall. If you’re able to, please park there and stroll over to help keep the surrounding area clear for buses, visitors with limited mobility, and the emergency services.

This year, Norfolk County Council will be closing the road outside the Village Hall to traffic for the day — which means our Christmas Fair can be bigger, brighter, and more festive than ever! The closure will give us plenty of extra space to spread out the stalls, entertainment, and activities so everyone can enjoy the day safely and comfortably.

A diversion will be in place via Carlton Drive and Woodland Gardens (and vice versa) while the road is closed. Please help us keep everything running smoothly by avoiding parking on nearby roads, so buses and diverted traffic can pass through easily.

Thank you for your support — together we can make this year’s fair the best (and brightest!) yet. It’s the community spirit that makes this event so special each year.

Oh What Fun It Is to Ride…

The Go To Town North Wootton 3 bus route stops for North Wootton Village Hall, serving North and South Wootton, Reffley, and Gaywood from King’s Lynn town centre.

All single bus fares remain just £1.50, making it the perfect way to travel.

Thank you for your contin-yuled support

All proceeds from the Christmas Fair go directly towards the upkeep of North Wootton Village Hall (Registered Charity No. 304026). Your continued support helps keep our hall and community events thriving all year round.

Yule not want to miss the Village Market
