Kickstart Your Christmas Shopping Locally at Leigh-on-Sea’s Late Night Shopping Event!

November 22, 2024

On Thursday 28th November, from 6pm to 9pm, Leigh-on-Sea will come alive with festive cheer as local independent traders along Leigh Road, The Broadway, Rectory Grove, and Elm Road host a special Late Night Shopping Event.

Shoppers are invited to discover the magic of Leigh’s vibrant retail scene, with a host of independent businesses offering beautiful, unique, and diverse gifts. Many stores will feature exclusive offers, festive refreshments, and a warm holiday atmosphere to make this a night to remember.

Gemma Simpson, owner of Other Kids, and co-organiser is thrilled about the event: “This is the perfect chance to support the incredible independent businesses that make Leigh-on-Sea so special. You’ll find stunning, one-of-a-kind gifts while enjoying the festive spirit of our community. Come and grab something beautiful and help keep our high streets thriving!”

Claire Jeavons, owner at Store Thirty3 and 110 Yards has worked closely with other Leigh-on-Sea retailers to launch the late night Christmas shopping event. She said, “Leigh-on-Sea is such an amazing place to own a business, we have the best customers who really enjoy shopping independent - finding clothing, homeware, gifts and so much more that you don’t find on the high street or online. Everyone taking part is hoping for a busy evening of shopping, socialising and enjoying the very best of all we have to offer.”
