Festive Market returns to Burgess Hill!

Join us for a fun-filled day of seasonal shopping, entertainment and community spirit.

Burgess Hill town centre is gearing up for a festive day with the return of our Festive Market on Saturday 7th December, from 10am. This event is organised and sponsored by Burgess Hill Town Council, in collaboration with the Burgess Hill Community Crafters at The Kiln.

Get ready to explore an array of stallholders offering handmade gifts, seasonal treats, crafts, mulled wine, cook your own smores, and much more… This is your chance to shop small and support local artists, makers and entrepreneurs while finding those festive gifts.

Feel the festive spirit with live performances from the Rock Choir, 11-11.45am and the Sussex Harmonisers from 12-12.30pm and 1-1.30pm. Mid Sussex Radio will be there too. And for the little ones, FREE face painting will be available at the Town Council’s Help Point from 11am – 2pm.

Also on Saturday 7th December, from 12pm to 6pm, the synthetic ice rink will be open at the Martlets Marquee. All sessions are FREE but must be booked in advance.

In the spirit of supporting our high street retailers and businesses, take the opportunity to use your Shop Loyalty Card, wherever you see the Shop Loyalty logo, to be in with a chance of entering the Christmas hamper prize draw. Information on the Shop Loyalty Scheme and Christmas prize draw is available at the Town Council Help Point open on Festive Market day from 10am – 2pm.

So, bring the family and join us for a day of shopping, music and festive fun at Burgess Hill’s Festive Market. Together we can make this festive season one to remember and give back to the local businesses that make our high street a special place all year long.
