A four-day ticketed Christmas fair with over 100 independent businesses inside London's oldest botanic garden, on the Chelsea riverside.

Chelsea Physic Garden, the walled botanic garden beside the Thames in Chelsea, holds a Christmas fair over four days at the end of November. More than 100 small and independent businesses take part, selling homeware, clothing and accessories, jewellery, artisan food and speciality drinks.

The garden says all proceeds from the fair go to its work as a charity. There is festive food and drink on site; in 2025 this included speciality hot chocolate and mulled wine.

Entry is by ticket, which is cheaper if booked ahead; Friends of the Garden get in free. The nearest Tube is Sloane Square.
