As an annual tradition, the market remoulds into an area filled with musical performances with the comfort of hot beverages and delicious choice of food to celebrate Christmas.
People travel from all over the borough every year, as Kingston Market has a reputation of being the best place to be in London during the holidays however this year, the expectations has exceeded as you can now enjoy a “European-style Christmas in a traditional British setting” as stated on the Market’s official website. This can be seen by the introduction of new stalls that provide different cultural and artistic activities, and the variation of food extending from Italy to Korea, separated by just one road.
New food stands that have opened in 2023 are: Chickenish, Rizz Rice, The Cheese Wheel and Wow Bao Club, alongside the usual stands that have been in the Christmas Market for many years. Moreover, there have also been additions to the entertainment available. The Bavarian Curling Lanes have been added on the ground of All Saint Church which provides a fun experience for family and friends and a marvellous view of the main streets which is decorated with beautiful lights that illuminate the landscape. In addition, live music is available in the Market Place with a view of a music schedule on the official website which will get you in the festive mood.
