Roll up, roll up! It's almost time...

....for the best Christmas Fair in the area....yes folks, in just a few weeks time the Original Vintage & Handmade Christmas Fair will be rolling into good old Chipping Sodbury town once again.


This popular event is always a joy to attend with over 40 stalls brimming with scrumptious ideas for Christmas gifts (or a treat for yourself!).
Showcasing some of the best vintage dealers, artists & creative designer-makers from the South-West & beyond, it is a day not to be missed.


With everything from vintage china & glass, toys & games, books & ephemera, fabrics & haberdashery, home wares & more, plus handmade hats, quilts, notebooks, cards, purses, bags, soaps, ceramics, dolls, heritage plant seeds & even Christmas cakes, you should be able to find a unique gift for everyone on your Christmas list in a friendly & relaxed atmosphere.
So much better than the same old high street commercial gifts & at affordable prices too!

Entrance is just £1.00 (children free) & there will be free Christmassy goody bags for the first 100 visitors of the day.

There is plenty of free parking all around the town which has a fabulous High Street filled with independent shops, so make a day of it!


What would a day out be without a refreshing cup of tea or coffee with a slice of delicious home made cake all served on vintage china in our traditional tearoom in aid of charity by The Ladies of Rangeworthy.

We hope to see you there for an enjoyable start to the festive season.


To whet your appetite, here is a list of the fabulous stall holders that will be bringing their wares from far & wide to create a veritable wonderland of vintageness & creativity this December....

Important note about parking on Saturday

Just a quick note about parking on Saturday. As well as the V&H Fair there is also a food festival & jazz festival going on in Chipping Sodbury. Accordingly, the chamber of commerce has arranged extra parking for the day in case you are unable to park in town. This will be on a donation basis & there will be parking attendants.

If you are coming from the direction of the motorway, carry on through the high street & you will find the parking past the mini roundabout on the left near the Merlin building. If you are coming from the Yate side of Chipping Sodbury it is on the right before the mini roundabout.

Once again - please remember that parking on the high street is time limited & under no circumstances should you park in the centre of the high street as you will receive a fine.
