Have your say on the Dorking BID Christmas Festival, 1 December 2024 from 10am to 5pm. We value and welcome your feedback.
We are inviting one and all to come along and join us for a joyful Christmas event that showcases and celebrates our local businesses and community.
We plan to fill the streets with market stalls hosted by Surrey Hills Enterprises alongside carol singers and performers, festive music and family friendly entertainment with a special appearance from our wonderful Dorking Halls Pantomime cast. We received your feedback (more shopping stalls, shorter closure, more children’s activities for example) and have worked hard to address your comments. Thank you!
We propose a partial street closure from Lyons Court to Junction Road. The road will have closures impacting the town from 7am to 7pm.
