Aspire in Ryde is inviting the community to join its annual Christmas Fayre on on Dover Street on Saturday (13th December) from 10:00 to 16:00.
The day promises to be full of festive family fun, live entertainment and seasonal treats – all in support of the charity’s ongoing community work.
Visitors will be able to enjoy a packed programme of activities throughout the day, including a special appearance from Father Christmas. Entry is free, making it a perfect festive outing for all ages.
Highlights include the popular Bouncy Snow Globe – offering a fun winter experience for children and families – along with performances from the Aspire Singers, part of the Aspire Creative Hub. At 11:00, Abbey Brass will take to the stage to perform classic Christmas tunes and carols.
Guests can browse a variety of local craft stalls, warm up with mulled wine and mince pies, and enjoy hot food served throughout the day. All proceeds raised will help fund Aspire’s year-round community services and projects.
Karen, Event Coordinator at Aspire, has said:
“We’re so excited to welcome everyone back for another wonderful Christmas Fayre.
“It’s a joyful day that brings people together, celebrates local talent, and helps us continue supporting our community here on the Isle of Wight.”
Those unable to attend can still support Aspire by donating online to the Aspire Christmas Support 2025/26 community crowdfunding project in Ryde, where Aviva will match donations up to £250.
