Various venues

Ten of Blackhorse Beer Mile’s finest drinking holes are combining forces to bring a mega Christmas fest to E17. A Christmas tree market will pop up at Big Penny Social with entertainment from nine-piece brass band Brass Funkeys; a live marachi band will be stationed at Exale performing their twist on Christmas classics and a swathe of local artisans will line up at Renegade Urban Winery for its festive market. And that only scratches the surface. Festive drinks and dishes will be available up and down the mile all afternoon – including a bespoke menu from chef Josh Dallaway at 40FT Brewery – and DJs will take the reigns at different venues to keep the festive spirit alive until 1am.
