Reigate Christmas Fayre
Reigate's annual Christmas Fayre takes over Church Street and the old town for a festive day out, organised by the Reigate Business Guild.
From 11.30am, browse stalls of gifts, crafts and seasonal treats, then head into the Yuletide Tunnel, where Tunnel Road becomes a cosy hub of street food, a bar and live music. The day builds to the switching-on of the town's Christmas lights.
It's free, friendly and full of local character, a perfect way to start the festive season in Reigate.
