DATES have been announced for this year’s Early Early Christmas Fair (EECF).

The event, which had to be held virtually last year due to the pandemic, is back at Tedworth Park in Tidworth on Tuesday September 28, 2pm to 9.30pm, and Wednesday 29, 9.30am to 4pm. But it will also be online after the physical event finishes.

The fair is in support of the ABF The Soldiers Charity.

Organisers said: “We are so looking forward to welcoming you all at this year’s EECF at Tedworth Park, Tidworth, Wiltshire. As many of you will know, this hugely successful event has been running for over 28 years, and after last year’s huge support online we are so excited to be bringing it back both live, and virtually after the live event closes.

“The EECF has for many years been an established ‘must’ on the county’s social calendar, with many VIPs and others supporting this event and bringing communities together in Wiltshire and across neigbouring counties. This year is about the Charity and supporting the small, hard-working businesses that are the key enablers of the event, and all our supporters.”

There will be more than 120 stalls with food items; fashion; personalised stationery, books; beauty products; pictures; stocking fillers; items for the home and garden; gifts for men, women, children and babies; and much more.

Stallholders will be giving 10 per cent of every purchase to the charity.

Antiques Roadshow experts will be giving free valuation of your heirlooms and there will also be book signings and a wellness pop up.
