Brocksbushes Christmas Fayre
Thursday 12 November – Sunday 15 November 2026
Brocksbushes Farm Shop, Stocksfield, Northumberland(NE43 7UB)
Brocksbushes Christmas Fayre began in 1998 and describes itself as a North East favourite across more than 25 years. It is held at Brocksbushes Farm Shop in Stocksfield, near Hexham in Northumberland, a family-run farm shop that grew from one acre of soft fruit and a tiny shop open for eight weeks a year. Over four days in November, 65 stallholders bring ceramics, jewellery, art, soap, toys, books, plants and hats, with street food, chocolate, chilli crisp and Northumberland gin among the food and drink. Live music and demonstrations are part of the programme, parking is free, and the fayre says access off the A69 is easy: a chance to find gifts, decorations and festive food all in one place.
