Lewes was named by The Times as one of the prettiest towns in the UK for Christmas shopping, and there is an upcoming evening of late night shopping.

On December 7 from 6pm to 9pm Lewes stores will open their doors for an evening of Christmas shopping and entertainment.

The High Street will be closed to traffic throughout the event, which will be opened by the Town Crier. There will be a Santa’s grotto, special offers in the stores, a best dressed window competition, a town trail, and entertainment on the High Street, food and other stalls.

According to The Times: “The big-brand shops of Brighton may be just down the road, but your pounds are better spent in the independent shops of Lewes. It’s already known as an arty weekend escape and a gateway to the South Downs, but the shopping is excellent too.”

The event is organised by Lewes Chamber of Commerce.
