Top 5 Reasons to Attend Edinburgh’s Christmas Unique Handmade Gifts Fair



The holiday season is just around the corner, and what better way to get into the festive spirit than by attending Edinburgh’s Christmas Unique Handmade Gifts Fair at Little Plaza? Held every weekend in November, this magical event brings together local artisans, families, and festive fun for everyone. Here are the top five reasons why you can’t miss this year’s fair!


1. Support Local Mums in Business

When you shop at the Christmas Unique Handmade Gifts Fair, you’re not just buying gifts—you’re supporting talented local mums in business. Many of these artisans have started their businesses after becoming parents, and this fair is a fantastic opportunity to help them grow their ventures. From handmade home décor to bespoke fashion items, each purchase supports local entrepreneurship and strengthens our community.

By choosing to shop locally, you're not only giving unique, thoughtful gifts but also contributing to the Edinburgh economy and encouraging small businesses to thrive.

2. Kids’ Activities and Craft Stations

Finding family-friendly Christmas events can be tricky, but Little Plaza’s Christmas fair offers the perfect festive day out for both kids and adults. Children will be entertained with a variety of craft stations where they can create their own Christmas decorations for just a small fee. Let your little ones channel their creativity while you browse through beautiful handmade stalls.

And that’s not all! There’s face painting, festive music, and a special treat: kids who come in Christmas outfits will get free hot chocolate—just one more reason to get the whole family involved.




3. Unique Handmade Gifts from Local Artisans

If you’re looking for gifts that stand out, this fair has you covered. With a range of unique handmade products created by local artists and crafters, you’ll find something for everyone. From hand-painted ornaments to eco-friendly skincare products, the market offers a wide selection of one-of-a-kind treasures. Each item tells a story and is made with love, making your gifts extra special this Christmas.

If you're someone who values craftsmanship and enjoys supporting small businesses, this is the place to get your holiday shopping done.
