What's On along Fleet Road

Fleet Road will be crammed full with a truly huge Christmas Market of over 100 stalls selling hot and cold food and drink, gifts and decorations. Everything you could want to start your serious Christmas shopping and keep yourself festively fed and watered at the same time!! The full list of all the stalls will soon be available on the website so get ready to have a browse and start planning to enjoy all they have to offer.
​
Fairground rides
These include the Big Wheel, Helter Skelter, Fun House as well as rides for little ones and Fun Fair rides in the car park of the Emporium PH.​

Street Entertainment
Look out for the street entertainers as you wander along Fleet Road including the ever-p[opular stilt walkers.
​​
Information Tent
If you have any queries or want to say “Happy Christmas” to our wonderful volunteers, we will have an Information Tent on the corner of Upper Street and Fleet Road. The volunteers will be looking after everyone (with the help of first-aiders and security personnel) and will also be the first stop for lost property and emergencies – though we sincerely hope there won’t be any!!

So, come along and enjoy the biggest event in Fleet’s calendar!
