Selly Manor Handmade Christmas Craft Fayre
Saturday 28 November 2026
Selly Manor Museum, Bournville, West Midlands(B30 2AE)
Beside the village green in Bournville, the Birmingham garden village founded by the Cadbury chocolate makers, Selly Manor Museum fills with local makers for its Handmade Christmas Craft Fayre. Stalls spread through two of the city's oldest buildings, some up on the upper floors, with gifts from macrame and jewellery to cakes and hot sauce. Bournville Voices sing Christmas songs at 2pm, and hot drinks are on sale as you browse. Entry to the fayre and to the museum is free all afternoon, so the rooms that show Tudor cooking, dress and daily life are open to wander too. And the day carries on beyond the manor: that Saturday is also the Bournville Christmas Festival, and its tree lights go on at 5pm.

There is an accessible toilet at the side of the toilet block with an emergency alarm and wall-mounted rails, and no Changing Places toilet. The museum has no car park of its own; parking is on Maple Road and Sycamore Road. Chairs are available in each room and there are benches in the grounds.
