“They will feature a whole host of local businesses, which means people can start their Christmas shopping early. We’re certain they’ll find a unique gift for everyone with such a vast array of homemade and crafted items on offer.
“We have traders lined up who will be selling everything from luxury candles and homemade wax melts to tree decorations and gifts for pets.
‘’Our specially selected line up of local food traders will also be selling a range of mouthwatering, flavoursome treats including gourmet burgers, stone baked pizza, delicious Greek cuisine, freshly-made donuts and warming hot chocolate, we’ve got it all.
“We are really proud to have once again partnered with some of the best local artisan food producers and crafters from the area and we hope that Weston’s Christmas Markets will encourage visitors to support local businesses.”
