Swing into Christmas at South Hill Park

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

YOU KNOW it, we know it, everybody knows it … December 25 is getting closer every day and after last year’s muted celebrations due to covid, we’re all looking forward to having the best Christmas Walford’s ever since and then some.

South Hill Park in Bracknell is getting ready for the festive season and it all starts this weekend.

Its annual craft fair takes place on Saturday and Sunday, showcasing some great gift ideas.

Artists gather from around the country to show and sell their fabulous range of designs, unique gifts and festive wares.

The weekend includes festive entertainment, and an opportunity to visit South Hill Park’s purpose-built silversmithing, ceramics and printmaking studios.

There will be a chance to watch current students at work and discuss options on how you can become a student yourself. The studios will be open at various times throughout the weekend.
