Sledmere Christmas Fair
Wednesday 25 November – Thursday 26 November 2026
Sledmere House, Sledmere, East Yorkshire(YO25 3XG)
Sledmere Christmas Fair fills two days in late November at Sledmere House with stalls of food, drink and craft. Makers bring festive gifts and decorations, producers bring food and drink made with local ingredients, and both are at the fair to meet. A ticket includes parking and the Parkland and Walled Garden, and the Christmas Shops, Farm Shop and Adventure Play Area are open alongside the fair. Three cafés serve food and drink: Coffee Corner at the Farm Shop, the Coach House Café and the Christmas Fair Barn Café. Every ticket also carries a 25p donation to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and The Millie Wright Children's Charity, and a voucher for money off at the Sledmere Christmas Shop.

Accessible toilets and a baby change are at the Main Entrance. Free parking is in the Main Car Park, with access spaces closer to the Farm Shop entrance. Two manual wheelchairs can be borrowed; booking in advance through the Ticket Office on 01377 455198 is advised. For access inside the fair itself, ask the Ticket Office.
