Huge Christmas market to be held at British Engineerium

The Grand Winter Makers & Art Fair, organised by Paper Daisy Events, will be held at the British Engineerium in Hove.

The event will be on Saturday and Sunday, November 22 and 23 from 10.30am to 4.30pm.

The fair will feature more than 120 makers, artists and designers, both indoors and in a new Makers Marquee.

The organisers say the market will have numerous gift ideas for people of all ages.

Visitors will be able to browse a range of items, including original artworks, textiles, ceramics, homewares, jewellery and wellness products.

The items on offer are not only varied but also unique, as each stall is selected for its quality, creativity, and originality.

Food and drink are also a highlight of the fair.

Orange Beach Bars will return with their Festive Horsebox Bar, offering hot drinks, mulled wine and more.

Street food will be available, including French raclette, wood-fired pizza, gourmet burgers, crepes and home-baked cakes and savoury treats.

The small-batch food and drink gallery will showcase locally produced goods, and Devil’s Dyke Distillery will host festive cocktail masterclasses throughout the weekend.

Visitors can also get involved in workshops and entertainment.

A Festive Wreath Workshop will be held by Bunches of Sussex, and there will be live entertainment throughout the day.

The British Engineerium will offer Steam-Up Tours across the weekend.

These tours allow visitors to explore the inner workings of the Victorian museum, providing a unique experience for all ages.

The Grand Winter Makers & Art Fair will be set against the historical backdrop of the British Engineerium.

The fair will be held in the Coal Shed Exhibition Hall, with its towering chimney, and a new Makers Marquee.

Optional queue priority tickets are available for £1.50, with under 16s free.
