Christmas by the seaside? Bournemouth is the perfect place to get into the festive spirit.
An open air alpine village market awaits you from 13 November – 3 January offering you Christmastime greetings for 2020.
The town centre will become a-glow with twinkling lights, late-night shopping, traditional Christmas market stalls and an open air single-storey bar where you can soak up the festive atmosphere, indulge in some warming beverages and watch the world go by.
At the very heart of our town centre at The Square, the streets will be lined with boutique stalls serving tasty treats from local and regional suppliers along with some quirky stocking fillers.
Feeling a little chilly? Pick up a beautiful handmade scarf and take a walk: smell the mouth-watering aroma of mulled wine, tuck into hot food options from local suppliers including sweet treat Churros and hog roast baps, watch the lights sparkle on the Bethlehem Tree and listen to the familiar choral tones of festive hymns.

Late night shopping makes it easy to pick up last minute gifts and there's also free parking in selected car parks across the town on the following days in the run up to Christmas.
