Christmas Opening Hours and Free Parking 2017
With Christmas fast approaching now is the time for a bit of Christmas shopping, and where better than in Frome’s independent shops. Many shops will be open for extended hours over the festive season. We have a few important dates to highlight:
Shops will be open later for the Christmas Lights Switch On – Friday 1st December, and for the Frome Independent Christmas Market on Sunday 3rd December.
On Saturday the 2nd of December, Frome Chamber of Commerce and Mendip District Council have arranged free parking in the Cattle Market car park for Small Business Saturday – “get your Christmas Shopping done and support your local shops”. Parking in all MDC car parks will also be free from 20th of December until Christmas Eve, as well as New Years’ Day.
Following this, most local stores will be participating in late Thursday shopping, every week up until Christmas.
You can find the opening hours for some of Frome’s stores below. Alternatively, you can visit our shopping page to find out more about what there is to buy in Frome.
