We are heading out and about this November and December which means it’s even easier to catch us this year for your Christmas shopping.

5 reasons to visit our 5 Christmas Shows

1. We are in locations all over London, with a range of gifts for them (and you). Which means it’s not far to head out to house, see the local Christmas lights and feel festive!

2. We often have one off samples and promotions that don’t make it onto the website which means you can come and grab something truly unique. (especially at Cockpit Arts Deptford)

3. We are highly selective on the Christmas events we choose which means you will only be invited to  TOP QUALITY fun and engaging events with other designer makers and skill craft workers.

4. ALL the shows we’ve chosen have cafes with cake, it’s not a day out Christmas shopping without coffee and cake, right?

5. You get to meet the designer, or the brain behind your chosen present, you can share the story, let you loved one know what they have is really unique present and feel really pleased with yourself on Christmas day that you chose the best presents!

So here are our shows, please pop by if you can, if you can’t you can still get perfect gifts via the website

With local designers and makers, as well as fantastic food stalls, live music, carol singing, a Christmas tree lighting ceremony & a BXAG stall selling mulled wine & mince pies.
