Epsom's 2026 Christmas markets: The Horton's free Festive Makers Market on 4 and 5 December, Bourne Hall's market on the 5th, Nonsuch Craft Fair from 9 Nov.

The dated Christmas markets in Epsom and Ewell this year are at Bourne Hall, Ewell and The Horton arts centre in Epsom. The Christmas Artisan Market is on Saturday 5 December 2026, 10am to 2pm, and entry is free. Before that, the Nonsuch Craft Fair fills Bourne Hall for two weeks from Monday 9 to Saturday 21 November, and the monthly artisan market is on Saturday 7 November.

There is no stand-alone Christmas market in Epsom town centre on the calendar yet. The nearest thing is the Epsom Christmas lights switch-on on Friday 20 November, 4pm to 9pm on Epsom Market Place, which the council says will have market stalls alongside funfair rides and a stage.

Christmas Artisan Market, 5 December

The council’s listing promises “seasonal gifts, handcrafted items, and local makers” at Bourne Hall, Spring Street, Ewell KT17 1UF, from 10am to 2pm. Entry is free, there is parking on site and the cafĂ© is open.

It is the last of the council’s monthly artisan markets for 2026. The markets page says they run on the first Saturday of the month, and the 7 November market is the one before it, also 10am to 2pm and free.

Festive Makers Market at The Horton, 4 and 5 December

The Horton, the arts centre in the former Horton Chapel on Haven Way, Epsom KT19 8NP, runs its Festive Makers Market on Friday 4 December from 5pm to 9pm and Saturday 5 December from 9.15am to 4pm. Entry is free. The Horton says the stalls will sell work by makers from Epsom, Surrey and the South East, including jewellery, textiles, ceramics, artwork and prints.

It falls on the same Saturday as the Bourne Hall market, so both can be done in one trip: their Saturday hours overlap from 10am to 2pm.

Nonsuch Craft Fair, 9 to 21 November

The Nonsuch Craft Group, formed in 1969, holds its annual fair at Bourne Hall for two weeks. Everything on sale is handmade locally by members: textiles, pottery, jewellery, jams and honey, wooden goods, glassware, knitting and crochet, cards and Christmas decorations.

  • Monday 9 to Saturday 21 November 2026
  • 9am to 5pm, closed on Sunday
  • Cash or card

Bourne Hall switch-on, 28 November

Bourne Hall has set its Christmas light switch-on for Saturday 28 November, 3pm to 6.30pm, with “more information to follow”. Last year’s Bourne Hall switch-on also opened Santa’s grotto. See our Christmas lights switch-on and Santa’s grotto pages.
