4:30pm – 5:30pm: The Big Sing
Lastly, families are invited to join the festive fun at Ealing Broadway’s Carrot Cabin on 23rd and 24th December. Open from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, families can pick up a free mince pie and carrot from the Community cabin, located within the Christmas market and directly in front of Tesco, to leave out for the man himself.
Andrew Rollings, Centre Director at Ealing Broadway, said: “Whether you’re visiting to pick up last-minute Christmas gifts, enjoy a festive meal, or simply to spend time with loved ones, we’re here right up until Christmas Eve to ensure you can get everything you need.”
