Your guide to Christmas gifts in Market Harborough

And tomorrow is Small Business Saturday across the UK. So we’re celebrating with this exclusive Market Harborough Gift Guide.

All gifts on these pages are available from independent town shops.

The town’s Chamber of Trade and Commerce chairman Alastair Campbell said: “If everyone does some Christmas shopping locally, it makes a huge difference to the economy of the town where you live. And of course you’ll find things you just won’t find anywhere else.”

Town centre streets will be closed and most shops open, including the Indoor Market. The Christmas Fair event is from 6pm to 9pm.

As well as the shopping, outdoor fun includes music on two stages, a funfair, Santa, an Elves’ Workshop, snow on Adam and Eve Street, real reindeer on Manor Walk, street stalls, vintage vehicles and a computer games bus.

Juliette Maher, the Christmas Fair’s chief organiser, said: “It’s been a lovely event to arrange.”

The full guide with pictures features in Thursday’s Harborough Mail, available in most shops.
