High Wycombe Christmas Market returns November 18

The popular market will run with festive gifts and food as well as chocolate and cheese gifting stalls.

There will also be fairground rides for children to enjoy.

Eden Shopping Centre is also running a slightly different event this year opposite H&M called the Eco Elves Tree-Cycle from November 25. 

The Eco Elves Tree Cycle event will be open from 10am to 5pm every weekend in the run up to Christmas and then daily from December 16 to December 24.

Families will be greeted by the scent of real Christmas trees and the sight of upcycled Scandinavian furniture, before little one’s will get to embark on a magical adventure.

From start to finish, children will experience the joy of Christmas as they transform a magic bean into their very own miniature Christmas tree with the help of Mrs Claus, a Christmas tree machine, and of course, the Eco Elves.

Then, using recycled craft materials, children will get creative as they have fun making environmentally friendly Christmas decorations.

Tickets for Eden’s Eco Elves Tree-Cycle cost £3 and must be pre-booked in advance. Tickets are now on sale at www.edenshopping.co.uk/events/the-eco-elves-tree-cycle.

Eden Shopping Centre is also raising money for local charity One Can Trust, who provide residents in High Wycombe and South Buckinghamshire food parcels.

Shoppers are being encouraged to make a food donation at the customer services desk and help spread Christmas cheer.

One Can Trust is also accepting festive treats such as boxes of chocolates and other dry cupboard products to help struggling families have a good Christmas.
