The Wight Brainy Bunch is returning to Ryde Fire Station on Saturday December 2 for its sixth Charity Christmas Market.

The fire station will be transformed into a magical winter wonderland for the event which takes place from 10am to 4.30pm.

The day will feature an array of seasonal stalls and festive entertainment to get you in the mood for the forthcoming festivities.

Enjoy a spot of Christmas shopping, or simply relax with a warming mulled wine or hot chocolate, whilst soaking up the Christmas atmosphere.

There’s plenty for the little ones too, with the kids craft corner, inflatable snow globe — and of course no visit would be complete without a trip to Santa’s Grotto.

A packed programme of entertainment includes Medina Marching Band, Melodic & Inspire choirs, Fusion Arts Academy, viola soloist from Isle of Wight Symphony Orchestra’s Andy Hicks and the Vectis Corps of Drums.

The market will come to a close, as always, with the official turning on of Ryde Fire’s Christmas tree lights.

Care at Home and Gordy’s Wood have generously sponsored the event.
