Christmas In York, England – Hotels And Accomodation

York begins the Christmas season this year (2009) with festive late shopping on Thursday 19th November and includes some organized family fun and festivities such as the decoration of a sparkling Christmas tree in St Helen’s Square and an ice sculpture of an angel in St Sampson’s Square.

St Nicholas Fayre takes place on the 26th November is one of York’s most important events being one the most visited in York’s Christmas calendar, followed by The annual Festival of Angels which takes place on 12-13 December.
