Christmas festivities are returning to Ealing Broadway shopping centre as the venue opens its seasonal markets and unveils a new programme of winter events.
The Christmas Markets, set in Town Square, runs from today (21 November 2025) until Christmas Eve (24 December 2025). Stalls will offer food and drink including freshly made churros, winter dishes, mulled wine and hot chocolate. The centre said the market aims to provide a festive flavour for visitors throughout the season.
Shoppers will also be invited to help name a new illuminated snowman installation in Town Square. An online competition, open to anyone aged 16 or over, will run until 24 November 2025, with a prize of £500 in shopping vouchers. Parents can enter on behalf of younger children.
From 4pm each day, beginning on 28 November 2025, the centre’s snow machine will produce a light flurry around the display.
Additional attractions will include visits from performers dressed as characters inspired by Christmas films including Elf, Home Alone and The Grinch. Appearances will take place between 11am and 4pm from 6 December to 24 December 2025.
Andrew Rollings, the centre director, said the programme was designed to offer “fun, laughter and plenty of surprises” for visitors during the Christmas period.
