Preparations are well underway for the 2023 Worcester Victorian Christmas Fayre – and this year why not leave the family car at home – and all take the bus?
This year’s Fayre is being sponsored by First Bus which is offering a special £10 ticket which will allow five people to have unlimited travel all day on the Worcester network, including travel on the Park & Ride.
The Victorian Christmas Fayre draws more than 150,000 people to Worcester across the four days, contributing an estimated £7 million to the local economy each year. This year’s event will run between Thursday 30 November until Sunday 3 December with nearly 200 stalls filling the city’s streets.
Visitors can enjoy a host of festive traditions such as roasted chestnuts and mulled wine and enjoy stepping back in time to how Christmas might have looked 150 years ago.
Seasonal stalls offering locally-sourced food, drink, crafts and gifts will be in place in High Street, Cathedral Square, Pump Street, New Street, Friar Street, Cornmarket and The Shambles.
