Christmas Shopping in <strong>Lewes</strong> 2011<br />
Yes, yes - we know it’s just the beginning of the<br />
summer holidays, but planning has already started<br />
for this year’s festive shopping events in the town.<br />
Building on the huge popularity of the Chamber’s<br />
annual Late Night Shopping evening in early<br />
December, which has now been running for<br />
more than 25 years, the Chamber is looking<br />
into widening the event to enable the regular<br />
Friday Food Market in the Market Tower and<br />
the monthly Farmers’ Market in the Precinct to<br />
participate and to show off their festive goods as<br />
part of a three day festival of all the great produce<br />
and wares that are local to <strong>Lewes</strong>.<br />
Final decisions on dates and on the detail of<br />
activities are still to be made, but a 3 day event in<br />
December 2011 might look something like this:<br />
Thursday Evening: Late Night Shopping evening<br />
Friday Morning: Festive Friday Food Market<br />
Friday Evening: <strong>Lewes</strong> Town Christmas Party<br />
buffet by the stall holders from the Friday and<br />
Farmers’ Markets as well as other local producers,<br />
music from local performers and decorations from<br />
local shops.<br />
Saturday Morning: Festive Farmers’ Market<br />
What we’re looking for now are:<br />
expressions of interest from local shops, producers<br />
and performers, suggestions for good causes for<br />
which we can raise money during the festival<br />
and offers of help to organise the events.<br />
And here’s hoping we don’t get snowed off again<br />
this year!<br />
Contact the Chamber of Commerce to let us know if<br />
you’d like to take part:<br />
