Christmas Fair 2026

Saturday 21 November

167 days 15 hours 12 mins 5 secs

Kick off your festive shopping at the REME Museum Christmas Fair with festive stalls full of handmade goods and local offers!

By popular demand, this year we are making it bigger! To make sure you have plenty of space to browse all the stalls and to offer even more local businesses the opportunity to have a stall, the REME Museum Christmas Fair 2026 will be held throughout the Museum Galleries and Education Suite.

Get in the holiday spirit and purchase gifts for loved ones, find that perfect Secret Santa gift or simply buy a treat for yourself.

As the Fair is now being held throughout the galleries we are asking for a small entry donation of £1.

Your donations help to support the REME Charity. The REME Charity provides financial assistance to past and present members of the Corps of Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and their dependants. They also support the REME Museum.

Stallholders

Information on stalls and refreshments will be released nearer to the event.

Further Information

Please note that visibility of displays will be limited on this day due to business stalls and lighting will be adjusted too, so if you would like a normal museum experience we recommend visiting on another day. However, for just £1 you could get a little bit of everything for next to nothing!

Grab a refreshment after all that shopping in our not-for-profit Crown's Cafe! Serving Christmas specials, barista-style hot drinks, freshly cooked food and sweet treats.

Our car park is free, with Blue Badge spaces available on a first-come-first-served basis. 

As much as we're becoming more reliant on contactless payments, we're aware that some of our traders may not be able to accept card at our Christmas Fair. So please remember to bring some cash too!
