For the first time this year, the gorgeous Cotswold venue of Elkstone Studios, set in the village of Elkstone between Cheltenham and Cirencester, is hosting a magical Christmas market.
On Saturday 7 December 2024, from 10am to 4pm, Elkstone will be brimming with Christmas magic and light, as stalls, live music, warm food and delicious drinks, family events and even a kids' club are all on offer at this festive event for the whole family — and four-legged family members are welcome, too!
In the range of stalls and on-site retail stores, discover handmade crafts, festive ornaments and one-of-a-kind treasures for everyone on your shopping list.
Warm up with delicious seasonal favourites such as mulled wine, mince pies, Christmas rolls, baked pastries, pizzas and vegan curries — and pups won't miss out either as there’s a selection of dog-friendly treats to choose from, too!
And to make Christmas shopping even easier, Elkstone is hosting a supervised kids club, where parents can drop little ones off at the festively decorated Elk Tipi for Christmas crafts, games and festive fun.
Once the shopping is done, take part in a family scavenger hunt, helping Santa’s elves complete their list of holiday chores by finding hidden items around the market; enjoy Christmas Carols performed by The Wednesday Singing Club; and find the perfect tree to take home in the magical forest of Christmas trees and twinkling lights.
The outdoor playground will also be open on the day, plus there will be a raffle to enter, with the chance to win some amazing prizes — all proceeds go towards Cheltenham Lido.
