Christmas & New Year Events in Westbourne

This Christmas you can enjoy this year's Bournemouth pantomime Cinderella from Sat 6 Dec 2025 – Sun 4 Jan 2026

Located in Bournemouth Square, The Alpine Market operates from 11am to 11pm daily, with the wooden chalets housing everything from artisan jewellery makers to local food producers, independent craft brewers to vintage clothing sellers. Whilst you'll certainly find your traditional German bratwurst and steaming bowls of glühwein, there's a decidedly local twist that makes this celebration uniquely Bournemouth. Meanwhile, the Christmas Tree Wonderland, with its spectacular light displays, creates a glittering pathway through the heart of the town.

Littledown Christmas Market is one of the biggest indoor markets in Dorset, boasting over 85 stalls selling handmade artisan crafts, jewellery, fused glass, local preserves, chutneys, award-winning fudge, seasonal cakes, cheeses, games and sustainable homeware and lifestyle produce. Kids can meet Giggles and Dizzy the cheeky elves while festive music from Sing-People-Sing fills the air.
