Christmas 2020

Whilst this Christmas will be different, we encourage residents to stay safe and shop local by supporting our businesses. Wrap your gifts using our free service when buying from our businesses, grab a postcard at one of the venues and send it to Father Christmas using the postbox located inside the Stratford Centre.

Stratford Original

01.12.2020

Last Christmas, we transformed Theatre Square into a Winter Wonderland with arts and crafts for children, Christmas songs, hot chocolate and popcorn, Father Christmas and live entertainment.

Whilst it might be a different Christmas this year we still want to bring some festive and joyful spirit in Stratford town centre.

Stratford Original BID in partnership with London Borough of Newham, Newham Markets and Stratford and West Ham Community Neighbourhood have teamed up to bring to Stratford a Christmas Tree on the Broadway by the entrance of the Stratford Centre and Christmas Lights throughout the town centre.
