Brighouse 1940s Weekend

The countdown to Christmas officially gets underway in Brighouse on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 November.

Across the weekend, there will be an amazing food and craft market, live music and a range of Christmas fun for all the family – including the switch-on of the town’s Christmas lights.

Over 70 stalls of locally produced food and crafts will take over the town centre providing a great opportunity to buy those special presents. The market will include some traders making their first visit to Brighouse, including:

Gohrt Bakery – an artisan Nordic Bakery with Christmas cinnamon buns and gingerbread
Off the Grain – selling handmade wooden furniture and décor
Student Design Co. – with a range of laser cut gifts

As well as the food and craft market, the weekend sees Father Christmas turning on the town’s Christmas lights on Saturday afternoon at around 4pm at the stage on Bradford Road.

The weekend is organised by the Brighouse Business Initiative (BBI), a voluntary group made up of the town’s retailers and businesses.

Other highlights include:

Festive music on the stage on Bradford Road
Carol Singers from local primary schools
A Birds of Prey display
Santa’s Grotto at Overgate Furniture Store
Street entertainers
Refreshment Stall, run by the BBI, with hot chocolate, mulled wine, tea and coffee - with proceeds going to support future events.

On Saturday, the market is open between 10am and 5pm with the town’s Christmas lights being switched on by Father Christmas in his horse drawn sleigh at around 4pm. The market re-opens at 10am on Sunday and runs through until 4pm.

Anne Colley, Chair of the Brighouse Business Initiative, said:

“Our Christmas Market weekend will mark the formal start of our countdown to the big day in Brighouse. We hope that as many people as possible will come to the town centre to get into the festive spirit, see the exciting range of food and crafts on offer and cheer as Father Christmas takes time out of his busy diary to turn on our Christmas lights.”
