The first Sunday in December

On a Sunday in December  from 10:00am until 4:00pm, Dickens of a Christmas brings a taste of Victorian England to Olney.

This very popular event attracts many visitors to enjoy the sense of days gone by. Stall holders dress in costume of the era, selling all manner of merchandise, at both the Market Place and the north end of the High Street at the junction of West Street and Yardley Road, offering many opportunities to purchase Christmas presents as well as supporting local charities.

Craft fairs can be found in The Olney Centre run by the Olney Lions Club.

Enjoy the old fashioned fair, street organ entertainers, singers and the Olney Brass Band.

A park and ride service is available from Emberton Country Park and the Yardley Road Industrial Estate.

A stallholder application form will be available to download from this page in early August. Applications to become a stallholder close on October 1st 2025.
