About the Fair

The City Christmas Fair has taken place every winter for 21 years, giving guests the opportunity to enjoy a day of luxurious shopping and unique events – all while supporting women’s health research.

2024 Welcome from Jane Jones and Nicky Milner, Joint Chair

We are delighted to be welcoming you back to the magnificent Drapers’ Hall.

How thrilled we are to be back at Drapers’ Hall and even more exciting this year to be able to see the Jonathan Yeo portrait of HM King Charles III hanging in situ as commissioned by Past Master William Charnely on behalf of the Drapers’ Company to mark 50 years of His Majesty’s membership of the Company.

Having held the Fair at Drapers’ Hall for over 20 years, we would like to express our thanks to the Master, the Clerk and all their staff for continuing to make us so welcome.

Thank you to everyone who came to last year’s City Christmas Fair. We had a wonderful day and were thrilled to have raised a record breaking £90,000 for Wellbeing of Women. In this, the 60th anniversary year of the charity we hope you will support us once again, in raising even more funds to support the invaluable work of Wellbeing of Women.

We are most grateful to our Patron, Lady Parmley, to our Ambassadors and to all our sponsors and donors for their hard work, encouragement and support, without which we could not have continued to bring the Fair to the City of London

This year we are delighted to be welcoming some exciting new exhibitors, as well as many old favourites. We hope that you will join us on Monday 2nd December to enjoy a day of festive shopping in the splendid surroundings of Drapers Hall. Come and listen to the choir, enter the raffle, place a bid or two in the silent auction, where we have some spectacular prizes and of course join us for a glass of fizz at the Champagne Bar.

As for our committee, they are the backbone of the Fair. None of this would have been achieved without their hard work and dedication throughout the course of the year. It is a great team effort – a huge thank you to you all.
