North West Cancer Research’s Wirral Bazaar is set to return to the Wirral this festive season, giving Christmas shoppers the chance to find the perfect gifts for their loved ones.

The much-loved event, which will take place on 4 and 5 November at Hulme Hall in Port Sunlight, Wirral, will feature plenty of seasonal offerings, including handmade gifts, delicious food and drink not found on the high street, plus fabulous festive entertainment.

Launched more than 30 years ago at the popular Walled Garden Marquee at Thornton Manor, the Wirral Bazaar has raised more than £620,000 for North West Cancer Research, helping to fund vital work towards tackling the cause, finding the cure, and improving treatment for cancer.

Sadly, due to circumstances at Thornton Manor, the charity was forced to move the event to Chester Racecourse in 2022.

Carol Kirkham Head of Fundraising at North West Cancer Research, said: “We are delighted to be back on the Wirral for this year’s event. It is the original home of the Wirral Bazaar, and we hope to stay here for many more years to come!

“The Wirral Bazaar has become a regular fixture in diaries for those wanting to find a unique gift for Christmas and to get in the festive spirit.

“Each year, we’re thrilled to welcome back businesses to showcase their unique gifts, and we’re always excited to bring on board brand-new stalls to ensure that shoppers can enjoy a fresh experience.

“We can’t wait to hold this year’s event in the beautiful Hulme Hall, and we look forward to seeing both returning and new faces picking up their Christmas treats!”

The Wirral Bazaar takes place at Hulme Hall, Port Sunlight on Monday, November 4, 2pm-9pm, and Tuesday, November 5, 9.30am-3pm.

Tickets are £5 each, with all proceeds going directly to North West Cancer Research, while profits from the cafe, and 10% of takings from over 55 carefully selected stalls will also be donated to the charity.

There will be free parking at the venue.
