The heart of Lichfield will be buzzing with festive excitement this weekend as the city's much-loved Christmas Fayre makes its triumphant return. Organised by the Lichfield Chamber of Trade and Commerce, the event promises to transform the historic city centre into a winter wonderland that will attract visitors from across the region.
A Celebration of Local Business and Community Spirit
Running from 10am until 4pm on Saturday, the fayre represents a key moment in Lichfield's festive calendar. Chamber president Ruth Redgate expressed her enthusiasm for the event, highlighting its importance to the local community.
"The Christmas Fayre is always a highlight in the Lichfield calendar as it brings the city centre bustling to life with local traders, families, and festive cheer," said Redgate. "This event is about celebrating community spirit and supporting the small businesses that make Lichfield unique."
What Visitors Can Expect
Attendees will discover a diverse range of stalls offering everything from handmade crafts and artisan gifts to seasonal treats and homegrown produce. The carefully curated selection ensures there's something for every member of the family to enjoy.
A full programme of festive entertainment will run throughout the day, helping to bring the Christmas joy to life and create memorable experiences for all who attend.
Supporting Local Enterprise
The fayre forms part of the Chamber's ongoing mission to support and showcase local businesses. All proceeds from pitch fees go directly towards covering essential event costs such as security and facilities, ensuring the fayre remains a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
For any local traders still hoping to participate, there remains limited space available, though organisers request that interested parties contact them by the end of play this Wednesday.
Entry to the Christmas Fayre is completely free, with visitors encouraged to arrive early to make the most of everything the day has to offer. For the latest event updates, follow @LichfieldChristmasFayre on social media or visit lichfieldchamber.org.uk/lichfield-christmas-fayre/.
