Visit Lichfield is excited to announce its ‘Have a Magical Christmas’ campaign, aimed at promoting independent traders and showcasing festive events in Lichfield District.

With a focus on supporting local businesses and creating a vibrant festive atmosphere, this campaign aims to make the district a top destination for Christmas shopping and celebrations.

During the festive season Lichfield District is a great place to find unique gifts from independent traders who make such an important contribution to the local economy. By highlighting these talented entrepreneurs Visit Lichfield’s campaign encourages residents and visitors to shop locally for their Christmas preparations.

Throughout December, Lichfield district will host an array of exciting events that capture the spirit of Christmas. From charming markets filled with handmade crafts and delicious treats, atmospheric light shows, nostalgic carols and festive workshops, to captivating performances by local artists and musicians, there will be something for everyone in this festive extravaganza.

Lichfield District Council’s Cabinet Member for High Streets and Visitor Economy, Councillor Janice Silvester-Hall:

"We are thrilled to launch our Visit Lichfield Christmas campaign.

"Our goal is not only to showcase the incredible products available from our independent traders but also create a magical atmosphere through the many festive events and activities that draw people into our beautiful district during this special time of year."

To enhance visitor experience, Visit Lichfield has partnered with local businesses offering exclusive offers and discounts to visitors and residents with a Visit Lichfield card, throughout the campaign period. These promotions will entice shoppers while providing great value for their money.

As part of this initiative, Visit Lichfield has revamped its website, with a dedicated section featuring participating independent traders and comprehensive event listings. This user-friendly platform serves as a one-stop-shop for all things Christmas in Lichfield District, making it easier than ever to plan an unforgettable festive experience. Details on how to apply for the Visit Lichfield card are featured on the website.
