Tips & Advice
- Go straight to the Street Food Market on the South Gravel when you arrive, or browse first and come back for a late lunch.
- Enter the Great Hall from the North Cloister staircase and leave by the South Cloister staircase, because a strict one-way system is in place.
- Leave your dog at home, because dogs are not allowed anywhere on the Dulwich College site during the fair.
- Drop the children at the KidZone in the Auditorium, where they can play games while you shop the fair's more than 130 stalls.
- Ask any marshal for help if you use a wheelchair, because the ramps into the South and North Blocks are steep.

Where do we find Father Christmas?
Santa's Grotto is in the main school Reception area. Its entrance is close to the North Gravel stalls, which are the first stalls you reach when you arrive.
What is there for children?
The KidZone in the Auditorium is just for children and College stalls. Kids can play games and spend time together there while parents finish their Christmas shopping.
Can I bring my dog?
No, dogs are not allowed on site.
Is the fair wheelchair accessible?
The South and North Blocks have limited wheelchair access because the ramps are steep. Even so, many wheelchair users come every year, and marshals will help if you ask. There's also a ramp between the stalls in the Lower Hall.
