The Best Christmas Events in Nottinghamshire
What could be better than getting together with your friends and family this December to enjoy some festive Christmas events?
Look no further, we’ve got you covered. After scouring the web to find all the best activities in the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire area. We compiled them all right here for the taking!
Christmas Events Local to you
We all know when the Christmas lights are being turned on, and we all know about the ice rink in Nottingham’s Winter Wonderland.
Beyond that, it’s a little trickier to find fun and different activities to do with your friends and family over the Christmas period. Especially ones where you don’t have to fight through masses of crowds!
So, if you’re looking for something a little out of the usual Christmas Markets, you have come to the right place.
Being from Mansfield ourselves, we thought it would be nice to compile a Christmas activity list. To get ourselves and you into that festive feeling. Christmas comes but once a year, and we want to make the most of it!
Let’s not forget that we are running a charity drive to gain sleeping bag donations. If you/your business would like to donate a sleeping bag, you can find out how by heading to our blog post;
