Peak Period (8th-15th): Christmas Lights Trail throughout residential areas, multiple Santa's Grottos, and Christmas pantomimes at various theaters drive sustained demand. Free Sunday parking throughout December supports extended shopping periods across all retail areas.

Local Events Calendar
Southend’s Christmas season begins with the Big Switch On (16 November, High Street, 12pm–7:45pm), a flagship launch event that draws thousands into the city centre and creates a major boost for local retailers.
The Old Leigh Christmas Market (7–8 December) and the Leigh-on-Sea Brewery Christmas Market (1 December) have become established coastal traditions, bringing together local traders, festive food, and entertainment in unique settings.
Throughout December, Southend keeps the festive atmosphere alive with a Christmas Lights Trail across residential areas, multiple Santa’s Grottos across the city, and Christmas pantomimes at theatres. Adding to the appeal, free Sunday parking throughout the month supports extended shopping periods across the High Street, seafront, and neighbourhood retail areas.
