Christmas begins on November 29 with Love Topsham!


* Christmas Lights Switch On from 4.30pm at Matthews Hall with entertainment from the fabulous Otter Morris dance troupe and a countdown to 5pm lights-on by a VIP Local Hero!

* We head to the Topsham Quay Christmas Celebration. Otter Morris perform another high-energy set, while lanterns and Topsham’s largest Christmas Tree create the perfect festive atmosphere!

* The traditional Love Topsham Festive Market at St Margaret’s from 5pm to 8.30pm. Gift ideas galore from over 20 artisan craft stalls plus a choir – and make room for our infamous mulled wine and mince pies!

Around Matthews Hall grab street food and drinks from The Old Fire Station, or hot chocolate and more from Topsham Treats.
At the Quay head to Route 2 or the Lighter Inn for refreshments.

[Please note – Fore Street will be closed to vehicles on November 29 4pm to 7pm; all events will be fully marshalled; collection using cash or card for Hospiscare].

There’s more Christmas fun in December of course!

  • Tuesday December 3, Late Night Shopping organised by Topsham’s traders
  • Love Topsham’s annual Best Dressed Windows competitions for shops and homes
  • Our much-loved Christmas Kids Trail with pit stops for free treats throughout town and ending at Topsham Museum.

More details of December events nearer the time – please check back for updates!

Many thanks to Greg Towning for capturing last year’s celebrations so brilliantly.
