A three-day Christmas craft, food and gift show in marquees on the Sandringham Estate in north-west Norfolk.

Living Heritage Country Shows, which also runs the Sandringham Game & Country Fair, ends its season each November with a three-day Christmas show on the Sandringham Estate, six miles north-east of King's Lynn. Well over a hundred craftspeople, artists and designers take part, many of them working at their stalls, alongside food halls with regional and national producers, gift marquees and arcades, log cabins and country clothing stands.

There is plenty going on between the shopping: chefs give demonstrations in a cookery theatre, chainsaw and ice carvers work on site, and the food courts have live jazz and swing music. Children's attractions have included a Christmas land train and puppet shows, and an opera-singing Santa performs.

The show is on grassed open ground, so wear suitable footwear. Parking is free, disabled parking is at the West Newton entrance on the B1439, and mobility scooters can be hired from a firm attending the show. Dogs on leads are welcome, though some marquees have wooden floors and the site can be noisy and busy. Bus 35 from King's Lynn stops at West Newton, close to the show.
