Hosted by Kenilworth Town Council and CJ's Events Warwickshire, the market will run at Abbey End from 10am to 4pm.

Santa and his elf will be in the Christmas Grotto to meet families, who can also make the most of Christmas games throughout the day.

Stalls from local businesses and community groups will take over the town centre throughout the day.

2. Food Takeovers

East Chase Distillers is turning up the Christmas cheer this weekend with a "spectacular" three-day tapas takeover — and you are invited.

Kenilworth's award-winning independent distillery is welcoming back the much-loved Tapas Zampa for a full weekend of irresistible Spanish flavours, "perfectly paired" with ECD's premium, handcrafted spirits.

In a first for the venue, the takeover will not be limited to Friday night. Instead, guests can indulge all weekend long, Friday 5 December from 5pm and on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 from 2pm.

3. Book Signings

Kenilworth Books has announced a series of events this December as the independent shop gears up for Christmas.

This week the Kenilworth Books team has Lizzie Lee signing copies of her latest novel 'The Cotswolds Christmas Café' on Thursday (4 December).

Following that, John Watson will be in the independent bookshop on Saturday signing copies of his new work 'Delves'. Each chapter of the work includes a clue to locate one of seven hidden delves across Warwickshire!

And on Sunday, popular children's author Julia Rawlinson will be at Kenilworth Books to meet locals, make snowflakes and to share her stories of 'Fletcher and the Snowflake Christmas' and 'Fletcher and the Stars' which are both in her Fletcher the Fox series.

4. Fringe

It's the first Thursday in the month which means Talisman Fringe is heading back to the Holiday Inn.

Organisers said: "Get ready for an hour of joyful mayhem as Santa's Christmas Elf Management duo, John Nichols and Colin Ritchie, lead you through a riotous mix of weird, moving and hilarious festive plays, topped off with sing-along seasonal songs.

"Directed by the cheery team of Rosie Gowers, Paige Phelps, Jill Laurie and Caroline McCluskey, the show features a sparkling ensemble of actors and singers bringing maximum Christmas spirit to the stage."
