Lighting Up Brentwood  - Saturday 28th November 2020

Stall holder applications will be open in February 2020. Please email us at events@brentwood.gov.uk to register interest for 2020.

Last Year Lighting Up Brentwood was the largest community event on the Council’s calendar.  The event around Brentwood High Street celebrated the start of the festive season.  Much of the popularity of the event is down to the strong network of community organisations that are involved in providing activities along the length of the High Street, which is closed for the event. There are almost 80 market stalls selling festive arts and crafts, and hot food and drink, together with Santa’s Grotto, walkabout acts and other children’s activities. There is a packed programme of performances on three stages, primarily by local schools and talented community performers. The event attracts a lot of attention from the local press and in 2019 we estimated over 15,000 people attended the event throughout the day with a packed switch-on by the Mayor.

Shenfield Christmas Fayre  - date TBC

Stall holder applications will be open in February 2020. Please email us at events@brentwood.gov.uk to register interest for 2020.

Shenfield Christmas Fayre is a real community affair with lots of local business involvement and community groups. A large attraction during the event is the stage hosting several acts throughout the day including local schools and bands. The main High Street (Hutton Road) will be closed for the event and will host over 60 festive stalls, family attractions, Santa’s Grotto, walk about acts and rides. 2018 saw an impressive helter-skelter, photobooth, large Italian market and piping band for all the family to enjoy. Delivered in partnership with local businesses and community groups, the event has become a staple on the local calendar. Last year, the event attracted an estimated 5,000 people.
