Christmas is coming and what better way to do some shopping, meet friends for a hot chocolate or mulled wine or bring the full family along for a fun day out than at a Little Bird Market.

This week Little Bird Artisan Markets will be visiting a variety of venues around the area, so lots of opportunity to come along to one near you. Thursday night Little Bird traders will be setting up in Easingwold as part of the town’s lights switch on event from 3pm to 8pm in the Market Square. There will be lots of fun and entertainment from Easingwold Primary School and Easingwold Town Band along with late night shopping and the opportunity to raise funds for St Leonards Hospice Light up a Life Service.
