What’s on...<br />
TOP OF TOWN<br />
Take full advantage of the road closures with a horse and carriage<br />
ride along the High Street while enjoying performances from the<br />
Vox choir, Paddock Singers, East Sussex Bach Choir, LGB Brass,<br />
<strong>Lewes</strong> Operatic Society, <strong>Lewes</strong> Handbell Ringers and singers from<br />
<strong>Lewes</strong> Grammar School. The Brighton Morris dancers and the<br />
Knots of May will be showing us how best to keep warm but for<br />
those not feeling that energetic the roasted chestnuts and mulled<br />
wine should do the trick.<br />
CASTLE<br />
Swing by the Gin and Fizz festival at the candlelit Gun Garden in<br />
the Castle Grounds. A fantastic range of Sussex sparkling wine, gin<br />
and other local produce will be on offer for you to sample, then add<br />
to your Christmas feast. You can print your own Christmas cards<br />
with Keith Pettit and take part in an intriguing sounding wintry art<br />
installation from F.A.R.M. (Fine Art Rural Mission). The festival runs<br />
from 5pm to 9pm; it’s free and open to all. For more details see<br />

Admission to the Barbican Museum is also free on the night. There’ll<br />
be activities in the galleries and a children’s trail around the<br />
museum.<br />
CRAFT MARKET AT THE TOWN HALL<br />
The Christmas Craft Fair returns to <strong>Lewes</strong> Town Hall (Fisher St.<br />
entrance) with over 60 stalls. You’ll be sure to find that perfect gift!<br />
SANTA’S GROTTO<br />
Santa will be stopping off at <strong>Lewes</strong> House to hear all your<br />
Christmas wishes, so thinking caps on, kids. For the grown-ups –<br />
mulled wine while you wait.
