Join us as we head to the Southbank Winter Market
Step into the magic of London’s Southbank this holiday season with a visit to the Southbank Centre Winter Market, one of the city’s most beloved festive destinations. Nestled along the Queen’s Walk by the Thames, the market runs from 3 November 2025 to 4 January 2026, open daily from 11am–10pm (craft traders until 9pm).
What to Expect:
- Alpine-style chalets: Wander through charming wooden stalls offering handmade gifts, jewellery, and Christmas decorations from independent traders.
- Festive food & drink: Treat yourself to indulgent street food such as duck wraps, Yorkshire pudding rolls, Himalayan dumplings, fondue fries, and churros. Warm up with mulled wine, hot chocolate, or spiced cider as you stroll beneath sparkling fairy lights.
- Atmosphere: The riverside promenade is transformed into a winter wonderland, complete with glowing lights, seasonal music, and the buzz of holiday cheer.
- Shopping opportunities: Pick up unique presents for friends and family while supporting local artisans and small businesses.
Speedfriending
Before heading to the Market join us for a speedfriending session in Phineas. This is a great chance to mix with everyone else coming along for the journey and make friends with lots of new people!
You will spend a few minutes getting to know each other before rotating around, meeting lots of new people in the group. It operates just like speed dating except instead you’re speedfriending!
Once everyone is ready we’ll head over to the market together.
Timings
The speedfriending will start at 17:00 and your guide will take you over the market at 18:00
