Thousands of visitors will flock to Worcester city centre when the annual Worcester Victorian Christmas Fayre returns between Thursday 4 and Sunday 7 December.
Worcester City Council is once again organising the fayre, which brings an additional £7.3 million a year to the local economy through additional visitors, overnight stays, and spend with local businesses.
More than 200 stalls will line Worcester’s streets, creating a vibrant festive atmosphere and attracting over 150,000 visitors across the four days.
Cathedral Square will come alive with the sounds of local school and community choirs, alongside live music performances.
Over in Cornmarket, visitors can enjoy the traditional funfair and the ever-popular Victorian carousel.
Adding to the festive magic, street performers will bring the city to life with lively entertainment, while the darkly humorous world of Gin Lane returns on Friday and Saturday evenings. This will see the Clik Clik Collective transform the Shambles alleyway into a nostalgic Victorian scene, complete with themed performers, games, and singing.
The Mayor of Worcester will officially open the Victorian Fayre on Thursday (4 December).
The celebrations will begin at 5.30pm in Cornmarket Square with carols and a speech by the Mayor, followed by the switching on of the Christmas tree lights in Cathedral Square at 7.15pm.
To make getting in and out of the city centre easier, a frequent park and ride service will run from County Hall to Worcester Bus Station, operating from 8.45am to 10pm on Saturday (6 December) and 9.45am to 6.40pm on Sunday (7 December).
