"A magical time with the shops and houses lit up for Christmas' "
Tripadvisor
A quintessentially fairy-tale castle; real Christmas trees decorated with simple warm white lights adorning shops and houses; a traditional tall Christmas Tree shining brightly in the Town Square; modern independent shops, contemporary art galleries, and great restaurants, pubs and cafes.
One of the South's most beautiful Christmas events
A note from the Committee: “Arundel Chamber of Commerce have announced that due to the ongoing Covid crisis, there will be no ‘Arundel by Candlelight’ event this year. However, there are a number of other new event formats, initiatives and marketing opportunities being investigated and explored for the vital run up to Christmas and the Chamber will be showcasing businesses with support from the experts at Akin, Arundel’s ‘creative collective’. Arundel will still shine brightly with Christmas trees throughout the town this December and will be welcoming residents and visitors as usual to its independent shops, galleries and restaurants.”

The seasonal treats on offer include roast chestnuts, mulled wine and hog roasts……. this is in addition to Arundel’s amazing range of independent shops, art galleries, great restaurants, pubs and cafes.
