Having transformed into a winter wonderland, Heaton Fold Garden Centre is holding a Christmas night market on Thursday, December 9.

Over 25 independent retailers will be offering a selection of artisan products, so it’s the ideal time to do some Christmas shopping. 

Mulled wine and black peas will be on sale to warm you and with Father Christmas in attendance, why not bring the little ones. 

The night market will run from 5pm – 8pm.

The event is just one of many ways the garden centre is getting into the festive spirit.

The Mayor of Bolton, Cllr Linda Thomas recently visited Heaton Fold Garden Centre, where she was helped by students who have learning disabilities and regularly undertake work experience at the garden centre, to choose a Christmas tree for the Mayor’s Parlour.

“It was great to get down to the garden centre and see all that’s on offer this Christmas. They have a large selection of trees available, and it was a lovely afternoon selecting the town hall tree with the students”, said Cllr Thomas.  

“The night market is a good chance to get some Christmas shopping done and support local independent businesses,” she added.
