St Leonard’s Christmas Fair

Community-run market returns for eleventh year with festive food, music and gifts.

St Leonard’s Christmas Fair is returning to Magdalen Road on Saturday 3 December for its eleventh year.

The road will close to traffic and instead provide space for 50 stalls selling gifts, food and drink.

Bricks and mortar retailers will also open their doors and sell food and wares outside their shopfronts.

There will be live music from five acts who will play festive music through the afternoon.

The St Leonard’s Neighbourhood Association has held the Magdalen Road Christmas Fair every year since 2011, except in 2020 because of the pandemic. It routinely attracts thousands of visitors.

It was formed following efforts by local residents to protect Bull Meadow Park from the construction of Western Way, and has been active for half a century.

Today it promotes community activities and publishes a neighbourhood news booklet which it delivers to 3,200 local addresses every two months.
