Introduction

We are Placemaking was engaged to create a Christmas Market on Hatton Garden that would encourage and engage local stakeholders and office workers to enjoy the space during their lunch hours and after work. 

Delivery

We delivered a Christmas market street event which featured 10 x chalet structures for a range of traders to sell their wares, a bar and food vendors as well as a heated seating area for workers to sit and mingle during their break / after work. Throughout the day there was live entertainment from a solo guitarist and jazz duo.

Challenge

In order to achieve this event, we had to issue a road closure and parking suspension for a 3 day period. We worked with and managed Camden council to ensure all procedures and licenses were adhered to.

Results

We ended with a successful event which saw office workers and locals utilising the seating area for lunch and engaging with our traders.
