Tips & Advice
- Buy a Santa's Grotto ticket for each child, since Santa is only in the grotto for part of the afternoon and each child gets a small wrapped gift.
- Book a wreath workshop slot ahead if you're 14 or older, since there are only two sessions and you take home a wreath made from natural materials.
- Take the kids to the Green Hut for free arts and crafts, which run all afternoon while you browse the windmill gift shop.
- Warm up at the cafe with mulled wine or a hot drink and grab a snack while the Christmas choirs perform.
- Dress warmly for a December afternoon, as the fair is held in Windmill Gardens around Brixton Windmill.
