If anywhere in London is going to look a million pounds this Christmas, it will be the lavish districts of Mayfair and Belgravia. This year, not only will Belgravia’s shop windows be adorned with gorgeous festive displays throughout the whole of December, but there will also be a wonderful line-up of events and Christmas markets coming to both districts. So flick on some Wham!, whip out your festive diary and pencil in these dates, because it sure is beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go. Especially if you go to Mayfair. And Belgravia.
Christmas Market in Mayfair
If you’re already giddy with excitement for Christmas, you’ll be pleased to know that you haven’t got long to wait for festive fun. A week-long market will be held in Mayfair’s Brown Hart Gardens towards the end of this month. With plenty of gifts and crafty stalls, it will be the perfect trip for stocking fillers. And, of course, there are lots of treats to nibble on while you browse. You can check out the event on Facebook here.

Christmas on Pimlico Road
The ultra chic design district, Pimlico Road, will host a Christmas edition of its weekly farmers’ market on Orange Square.

The event will be fun for all the family, featuring live music and a “Twelve Days of Christmas” treasure hunt.
