Located in the main mall of the centre, the popular Westwood Cross Christmas Market returns, offering a selection of festive products from small, independently run businesses
Shoppers who are looking for the perfect gifts this Christmas are invited to explore the range of unique personalised gifts, toys, and trinkets, plus sample seasonal produce and handmade food items.
The stallholders include:
Bootie Boutique: Stocking a selection of ladies’ fashion and accessories, plus a range of ladies, men’s, and children’s footwear. The stall also carries baby goods, such as baby grows, clothing sets and footwear.
Cookieman: Offering a tasty selection of freshly baked dessert cookies in some imaginative flavours, including Banana Bread, Chocolate Crisps, and Cinnamon Sugar.
Eye4Image: A must-visit for dog-lovers, where guests can purchase gift vouchers to have their furry friends immortalised with a touching photograph by pet photographer Mike Avery.
Kidz Closet: A Kent-based boutique that offers a great range of children’s clothing and a personalisation service for children and babies aged 0-14 years. The stall will also be carrying a selection of festive homewares and accessories, as well as its popular Christmas Eve boxes.
Nomad Jewellery: Features high quality 925 silver and stainless-steel jewellery, as well as a collection of semi-precious gems.
4 Keeps Jewellery: Offering unique welded ‘permanent’ jewellery, including bracelets, anklets, necklaces, and chains. Shoppers can select designs and engravings for a personal touch, with pieces welded to wear for a lifetime.
Located in the Main Mall, stretching from H Samuel to Boots and continuing along the harbour wall opposite Hotel Chocolat, the market stalls will be trading up to Tuesday 24th December but please note individual stall opening times may vary.
What’s more, families are invited to meet Mr. Claus himself as Santa’s Grotto returns to Westwood Cross.
Open from Friday 29th November until Christmas Eve, adults and children on the ‘nice’ list can meet Santa and receive an age-appropriate gift.
Santa’s Grotto will be in the Sundial area of the shopping centre and welcomes walk-ups; however, it’s recommended that bookings are made online in advance as this magical experience is expected to be popular.
In the spirit of giving, Westwood Cross is partnering with The Salvation Army and 1st St Lawrence Scout Group to raise vital funds for those in need this Christmas.
