Festive Market and Christmas brands launch at Clarks Village
Clarks Village is set to showcase its Festive Market as two new stores join the outlet for the Christmas season.
The artisan market of independent stalls will be spread out across the Somerset shopping outlet, offering a taste of the South West’s best producers and crafters. It will open for the weekend between Thursday 7th November and Sunday 10th November, before returning for the duration of the festive season from Friday 29th November. It will then open daily until Christmas Eve with Clarks Village’s Festive Ice Rink also opening from Thursday 14th November, launching with its free ‘World’s Biggest Santa Skate’ event.
The Festive Market will feature* Taunton handmade doughnut makers DoughBros,
treats from Sean the Chef, Kin Toffee Vodka, Spirit of Glastonbury Gin, Somerset’s cider farm Rich’s Cider and refreshments from the Happy Café Horsebox. They will be joined by South West artists Matt Akister and Emma Keys, Somerset fused-glass artist Shelden Glass and wool felt artist Maxine Shattock, with handmade gifts from The Fairy Toadstool and luxury dog gifts from Smiley Myley – with more stalls to be confirmed.
In addition to the Festive Market, Clarks Village has welcomed two pop-up brands for Christmas. Accessories brand House of Tweed has opened next to Molton Brown, overlooking the outlet’s Central Square Gardens, while the ever-popular Calendar Club has opened in Pear Court. Meanwhile, Bill’s restaurant on track to open in December.
The outlet has also seen a refresh of two of its popular brands. As part of its glow up, Levi’s has introduced a new fitting room experience while Pizza Express has enhanced its restaurant store front.
