A special Christmas market brings a festive feel to the piazza this winter as Christmas Deluxe at Covent Garden invites visitors to indulge in a spectacular Christmas experience.

Transformed into an amazing festive setting for the winter period, the Christmas Deluxe market has been designed by famous film set designers, creating a fabulous wintery wonderland of festive fare. A white on white paradise tempts customers in to buy luxury food, get their presents wrapped in a bespoke service, and catch some amazing live theatre performances.

Breathtaking aerial performances, childrens storytelling and world class entertainment are just some of the things that you can enjoy at Christmas Deluxe at Covent Garden. Sure to enchant locals and tourists alike, the special Christmas market is crammed full of shows, activties, events and indulgent gifts that will make all but the most hardcore Grinch delighted.

Several enchanting performances from world famous troupes will take place every night throughout the Christmas period, with the first UK performances in two years from Dream Engine and some spectacular fusion theatre from Strange Fruit.

Peculiar, unique but very entertaining, kids and family will delight in these festive shows, with amazing theatrics and stunning performances. Strange Fruit perform their theatrical dance acrobatics at 2pm, 5pm and 8pm from 14th December. From 23rd November you can see some amazing aerialist performers and some wonderful performance art known as Heliosphere. With balletic grace and astonishing control the performers will contort their limbs and fly enormous balloons whilst suspended underneath them. All three shows take place on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until Christmas.

Christmas Deluxe at Covent Garden also provides for the festive foodie lover, with a special luxury food market. Following the success of the summer Night Markets, the 12 Days of Christmas Market brings the country's finest producers to Covent Garden piazza with their delicious wares. Over 12 special days the market will have everything from French hens to figgy pudding to make your Christmas full of festive fare. Indulge in English stilton, smoked fish, roast chestnuts, and the ultimate treat, a Turducken, which is a turkey stuffed with a duck then stuffed with a chicken.

For anyone who is bored of their own Christmas decorations or needs a hand wrapping presents, Christmas Deluxe at Covent Garden is the place to go. From the 15th December a couture gift wrapping service is available on Central Avenue to help you make your presents look like they have been decorated by Santa's elves themselves. Get your presents wrapped in stunning paper and perhaps pick up a few tips for next year. And if your house is as badly decorated as your presents, whynot visit the decoration exchange, where you can swap your past it decorations for some donated by other Christmas shoppers.

And for the little ones, the piazza is also the location for the Christmas storytelling, where kids and family can spend a traditional evening listening to the storytellers, enjoying mulled wine and grilled sausages within the magical setting of Christmas Deluxe at Covent Garden.
