Get your Christmas shopping done in one easy move this weekend as the Shop West End VIP day returns to Oxford Street and its surrounds. For one day Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street will be traffic free to allow shoppers the safety and comfort of the best pedestrianised shopping area in town.

Shop West End VIP Day 2008
Last year a huge number of people took advantage of the lack of buses, cars and taxis on the street. Now the Shop West End VIP day is back for Christmas 2008 and Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street all getting in on the act.

Christmas shopping
The traffic free shopping day is set to once again provide Londoners with the chance to get their presents and gifts from some of the biggest and best stores in London, without fear of getting chased down by couriers or stepping backwards and nearly getting run over by a bus. With live performances from street theatres and entertainment to brighten up the day, you can expect the Shop West End VIP day to be even more fun.

Car free
A special days for all VIPs in London (Very Important Pedestrians), the day should provide some much needed calm for anyone in need of lots of presents. Without the hassle of having to avoid the smoke and fumes coming from the traffic, you can be sure that the experience of Christmas shopping in the West End will be much more appealing without the motorbikes, cars, scooters, cyclists, buses and taxis getting in your way.

Get in quick
The first weekend of December is always a time when you start to realise that Christmas is not actually that far away, and with only 18 shopping days left after the Shop West End VIP day, surely it's best to get most of it out of the way this weekend to leave the rest of the month free for festive fun.

Street entertainment
The Traffic Free Shopping Day is part of a special weekend of shopping and entertainment in the West End, which will see a host of Dickensian characters take to the streets, as well as break dancing Santas and acrobatic ice fairies. There will plenty of treats in store for kids on the VIP day, as well as the West End Christmas family day on Sunday 7th December.

The Shop West End VIP day takes place on Saturday 6th December 2008. Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street will be closed to traffic throughout.
