This is such a handy roundup for December — the Shoreham Makers Fair and Seven Sisters market are both on my list now. The range of things to do is pretty impressive, from the orchestra playing The Snowman to all the craft stalls. Speaking of crafting a certain vibe, I recently came across bad quality image maker , which is a fun little tool for intentionally making photos look terrible — perfect for a joke Christmas card or a deliberately awful festive meme. Anyway, thanks for putting this guide together!

Useful roundup for anyone planning a December trip around Sussex, especially with the mix of markets, concerts, and family-friendly events. For anyone looking to add a different kind of outing, cowboy safari is another option worth checking alongside these festive picks.
