Christmas Merriment on the Riverside

 

3 November 2025 to 4 January 2026

Soak up the festive spirit by the River Thames at the Southbank Centre Winter Market. This beloved London tradition transforms the Southbank into a sparkling riverside wonderland filled with twinkling lights, cosy wooden chalets, and the scent of seasonal treats in the air.

Wander among rows of charming Alpine-style stalls offering handcrafted gifts, artisan decorations, and unique stocking fillers from independent makers. Take a break to enjoy warming winter food and drinks, from truffle burgers and duck wraps to sweet churros and classic mulled wine. For an extra indulgence, find a fireside spot for gooey raclette or rich hot chocolate, perfect for keeping warm on crisp winter evenings.

With the London skyline glittering across the river and festive music filling the air, the Southbank Centre Winter Market is the perfect place to shop, sip, and celebrate the season. Whether you’re meeting friends after work or planning a weekend stroll, it’s a must-visit for anyone looking to capture the magic of Christmas in the heart of the city.
