This year avoid the bustling crowds fighting over that must have toy, instead you can enjoy log fires, mulled wine and unique Christmas gift ideas from a wide variety of quality suppliers. Take the evening at a leisurely pace and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Stirling Castle’s Great Hall.

We’ll have big name brands including Harris Tweed and Sheila Fleet and new up and coming designers such as Gillian Kyle and Scott Innes.  Visitors can also enjoy cooking demonstrations from our caterers benugo and local truffle company Fiona’s Fayre and get tips from Stirling Florist Jennifer Morrison on how to dress the perfect Christmas dinner table.

Author and broadcaster, Neil Oliver will be on hand to sign copies of his new book and our own artist in residence, Iona Leishman will have a selection of her work on display and for sale.  This popular event brings together a unique mix of suppliers you won’t find anywhere else.

Stirling Castle Trading Manager, Christine Brownlee said, “We wanted to offer visitors something that little bit different so we have focused on bringing in really high quality and unusual gifts from beautiful Scottish Jewellery including ranges Shelia Fleet and Ortak to experience gifts such as Blair Drummond’s zoo keeper for a day and gift packages from the gorgeous Lumia Spa.”
